About me

I am a PMP-certified Director of Program Management with over 15 years of experience leading telecommunications programs across more than 100 countries. My expertise spans federal and commercial contracts involving LEO/GEO satellite networks, 5G infrastructure, and SD-WAN deployments. I have a proven track record of delivering measurable cost savings and revenue recovery through operational improvements, contract performance, and emergency response leadership.

Throughout my career, I have held direct P&L accountability for multi-million-dollar business units and led teams of over 50 personnel distributed across 18 time zones. My leadership style emphasizes cross-functional team building, crisis response, and stakeholder engagement, supported by my military background as a Signal Officer and Communications Commander.

I have successfully managed complex telecommunications programs for government and commercial clients, including emergency deployments and market expansion initiatives. My experience includes managing contracts worth tens of millions of dollars, reducing service outages through predictive analytics, and restoring critical communications in conflict zones.

In addition to program management, I provide independent consultancy services focused on AI integration, IT support, and strategic advisory for satellite network utilization. I am skilled in leveraging business intelligence tools such as Tableau, SQL, and R to optimize workforce planning and operational performance.

I am committed to continuous improvement and operational excellence, demonstrated by my ability to redesign workflows, improve customer satisfaction, and maintain high vendor performance standards. My Top Secret clearance eligibility and PMP certification further support my capability to manage sensitive and high-impact projects effectively.
