TECHNICAL PROJECT MANAGER | PMP

About my work
I’m a PMP-certified technical project manager with 15+ years in enterprise infrastructure, identity security, and automation.
I turn business needs into requirements and help teams plan technical work across banking, healthcare, and retail. I also use UX design to improve how people use solutions.
Selected projects
- Bank of America: I led a phased password-rotation rollout after PAM onboarding stalled, coordinating 11+ teams and 40+ engineers across thousands of application and service accounts.
- Wells Fargo: I secured approval for wire-transfer infrastructure designs and translated SWIFT, CHIPS, and Fedwire rules into actionable requirements.
- Veradigm: I developed an RBAC Audit Report App using Power BI, Power Apps, and Power Automate. I separately developed a CyberArk account-vaulting/PAM pilot.
Role-based access control (RBAC) assigns access by role. Privileged access management (PAM) covers sensitive accounts and credentials. SWIFT, CHIPS, and Fedwire relate to payment messaging and transfer systems. A minimum viable product, or MVP, is an early version used to test an idea.
Skills and tools
Delivery & analysis: Requirements, stakeholder coordination, risk and change management, Agile/Scrum knowledge; Microsoft Project, Jira, Confluence, ServiceNow.
Technical & integration: PowerShell, SQL, C#, Entra ID, MIM, CyberArk, Azure.
Design & prototyping: UX design, MVP work, Power BI, Power Apps, Power Automate; open-weight models (DeepSeek, Qwen); Replit (AI-assisted portfolio).
