Over the last decade, I have established a strong background in project management, business analysis, and agile team leadership. As a lifelong learner with a science background, I can quickly make connections and comprehend complex business goals. Additionally, my extensive experience working with business partners and influencing without authority equips me to contribute to the strategic planning and execution of programs and projects.

I have a proven track record of defining, planning, and executing highly integrated projects across various specializations, including ML/AI, data science, software engineering, and regulatory spaces.
