I
'
m
a
project
manager
with
10+
years
of
experience
leading
software
delivery
for
healthcare
,
fintech
,
and
enterprise
clients
.
I
specialize
in
turning
ambiguous
,
high
-
stakes
initiatives
into
clear
delivery
plans
—
defining
scope
,
sequencing
work
,
managing
risk
,
and
keeping
every
stakeholder
aligned
along
the
way
.
My
philosophy
is
simple
:
a
project
succeeds
when
the
team
is
set
up
to
do
their
best
work
and
the
business
gets
what
it
needs
—
on
schedule
,
on
budget
,
and
without
surprises
.
I
'
m
equally
comfortable
with
Agile
,
Waterfall
,
and
everything
in
between
,
as
long
as
the
plan
is
honest
and
the
communication
is
constant
.

When
I
'
m
not
managing
projects
,
I
mentor
first
-
time
project
managers
through
PMI
Austin
,
run
half
-
marathons
badly
,
and
cook
my
way
through
Ottolenghi
recipes
.
I
also
volunteer
as
a
delivery
lead
for
a
local
nonprofit
'
s
annual
fundraising
sprint
.
I
believe
the
best
project
plans
leave
room
for
the
unexpected
—
and
that
a
good
debrief
is
worth
a
hundred
status
meetings
.
