I bring over 25 years of experience as a Senior Technical Project Manager leading complex initiatives across cybersecurity, SCADA/OT environments, cloud migrations, identity and access management, and AI/ML program delivery. My educational background includes a bachelor's degree in Information Technology along with advanced professional certifications such as Certified Scrum Master (CSM) and Certified Scrum Product Owner (CSPO). I also hold specialized credentials in AIM/AI program delivery, SCADA/OT systems, and enterprise security operations.

I have taught and mentored project managers, engineers, and early-career professionals in both formal and informal settings for more than a decade. My teaching experience includes one-on-one coaching, small-group instruction, and structured classroom-style workshops within corporate environments. I've trained adult learners ranging from new graduates to senior professionals seeking to strengthen their project delivery, Agile, and technical leadership skills.

My teaching approach focuses on practical, real-world application. I use scenario-based learning, hands-on exercises, and step-by-step frameworks to help students understand project planning, Agile methodologies, risk management, stakeholder communication, and delivery execution. I tailor instruction to each learner's experience level, ensuring concepts are accessible while still grounded in industry best practices. My goal is to help students build confidence, master core PM competencies, and apply proven techniques to real projects.
