Agile Coach, Program Manager, and Management Consultant in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Certified Scrum Master and Digital Program Manager with 10+ years of experience, I lead and mentor executives and scrum teams to deliver award-winning products and services. An agile evangelist who combines catalytic leadership and cultural diffusion techniques, I excel at developing processes that facilitate continuous improvement and teach teams to reflect and self-manage. I strive to build consensus and a culture of transparency, trust, and accountability, and am skilled at customizing agile concepts and methodologies to meet the unique needs of the program and team. Lastly, I've coached or managed both co-located and remote (offshore) teams, ranging in size from 10 to 70 people, extensively across industries, and have managed budgets ranging from $250,000 to $60 million.

A servant-leader who is results-driven, technical, and thinks outside the box, my leadership experience spans both strategy and delivery projects. My core strengths include collaboration, strategic thinking, and relationship building. I operate with low-ego, am platform agnostic, and work with my team to find the best solutions for my clients.
