About

Professional summary

I am a bilingual PMO and Operations Coordinator with more than 20 years of experience in telecommunications, network operations, project support, and stakeholder coordination.

I have supported large-scale Engineering and Works portfolios involving GPON, IP and optical transport, mobile core, cloud core, and infrastructure decommissioning. In my most recent role, I helped coordinate approximately 680 projects per year.

I am experienced in tracking milestones, risks, dependencies, owners, open items, and change requests. I coordinate internal engineering teams, NOC teams, contractors, tower companies, suppliers, and senior management to maintain execution continuity.

I manage CRQs end to end, including creation, validation, approval follow-up, compliance control, and closure. I also prepare KPIs, executive reports, presentations, and operational status updates using tools such as Jira, SAP PPM, Microsoft Planner, Excel, and PowerPoint.

I bring strong communication, escalation management, documentation control, and meeting facilitation skills. As a Spanish native speaker with advanced professional English, I have also provided live EN–ES technical interpretation for international vendor and technical teams.

I am actively seeking a PMO or Project Coordination role, preferably in a hybrid or remote environment. I am currently strengthening my Power BI skills and preparing for the Cambridge C1 Advanced examination.
