Professional summary

I am a Senior Delivery Lead and Regional Program Manager with more than 20 years of international experience managing complex programs, large-scale portfolios, digital transformations, and enterprise Agile initiatives.

I specialize in connecting C-level business strategy with technical execution. I establish governance models, PMO and Agile Delivery Offices, and delivery practices that improve alignment, visibility, and execution across multi-country organizations.

My background spans Financial Services, Telecommunications, Insurance, Retail, Healthcare, and Automotive. I have led end-to-end implementations of digital financial products, CRM platforms, SAP and S/4HANA initiatives, data governance programs, customer engagement programs, and information security portfolios.

I am experienced in Agile, SAFe, Scrum, Waterfall, and hybrid delivery models. As a Release Train Engineer and Agile leader, I coach delivery teams, improve Agile maturity, manage dependencies and capacity, and support continuous improvement.

I bring strong expertise in program financial management, budget and P&L oversight, KPI reporting, risk mitigation, stakeholder management, and executive communication. I lead cross-functional teams and communicate program health and outcomes to senior executives, boards, and regional leaders.

I am committed to accelerating time-to-market, reducing delivery risk and defects, and driving sustainable organizational change through practical governance, data-driven management, and collaborative leadership.
