BIO
I am a senior project manager responsible for the management of large, complex, multi-year strategic and technical projects. I possess 18+ years of project management experience and have developed into an expert in project management methodologies and tools. Having worked 25 years in both technology infrastructure and software development fields and I possess extensive expert in a number of technical consultative services. My breadth of experience has exposed me to diverse, enterprise level systems and projects many involving the replacement or upgrade of legacy systems. I have managed projects that involved multiple business units and vendors and have worked with executives and managers from all levels of an organization. In all my projects I am rigorous in the management of plans, resources, issues, change and risks and ensure that all levels of management are informed on project schedule and status. In previous positions I was responsible for continuously improving project methodology using LEAN, Agile and CMMI frameworks. I also have extensive experience with MS Project and structuring SharePoint to effectively support document management requirements. This has provided me with a strong working knowledge of Libraries, Content Types, Document Sets and Meta Data.
