20+ years shipping complex enterprise programs on time — across regulatory modernization, SaaS platforms, and liquidity risk — in insurance and financial services.
About
Most transformation programs don't fail because of bad technology. They fail because strategy, risk, and technology teams can't align. I navigate that chaos. I'm a PMP, CISA, PSM II, PMI-CPMAI, and Azure AI-900 certified Program and Portfolio Leader with 20+ years delivering complex, multi-million-dollar transformations across insurance and financial services.
At MetLife, I led IFRS17 modernization across 19 jurisdictions, aligning actuaries, finance teams, and technology under competing priorities — delivering 67% faster reporting and a 95% reduction in compliance findings. At PGIM, I eliminated 2,000+ manual processes by resolving data governance conflicts across HR, Finance, and Technology.
What sets me apart: I don't just manage programs. I see how strategy, risk, and technology connect across the organization and build the bridges that make alignment happen, so leadership can make better decisions, faster.
The hard part isn't the technology. It's aligning the humans.
Strategy, risk, and technology teams speak different languages, operate on different timelines, and answer to different stakeholders. When they pull in different directions, programs stall, costs escalate, and leadership loses confidence. My job is to build the alignment that makes execution possible — and to do it before the wheels come off.
What I Deliver
These are the disciplines where I create the most measurable impact for organizations navigating complex, high-stakes change.
