🏆 Throughout my career, I've been honored with multiple accolades, including the prestigious Gold Coin® and WAC® awards at Wells Fargo. These recognitions underscore my commitment to innovation and excellence in technology and processes.

🎯 Specializing in managing complex programs with multi-year budgets ($150K - $10M+), I orchestrate comprehensive project lifecycles, ensuring meticulous planning and execution. My expertise spans leadership, strategic planning, risk assessment, and change management.

📊 Leveraging cutting-edge tools like JIRA and Confluence, I streamline project workflows and optimize efficiency, resulting in substantial cost savings and precise budget tracking.

💡 What sets me apart is my ability to integrate financial management principles seamlessly into project management, ensuring holistic oversight and execution. My deep industry knowledge and specialized expertise in Oracle HRMS, SAP HCMS, and Cybersecurity drive cutting-edge solutions tailored to industry-specific needs.
