A mix of engineering and project management: I was responsible for executing high voltage multi-million dollar substation projects that provide power for northern LA, eastern LA, and southern Orange counties. Worked with teams of 15-50 stakeholders regularly to complete engineering on 90+ substation projects to date. Work impacted millions of customers within the region.

I write about program management in an effort to challenge what we know about it. My goal is for you to make a bigger impact as a program and project leader. I write a newsletter that breaks down program tactics that you can use (link in bio).

Note: My direct message response time is slow on LinkedIn. Please email me for a faster response.

My work experience (the regular LinkedIn stuff):
12 years of leading infrastructure and software projects at scale. 3 years leading direct reports with the last team being 10 people. I lead organizational process creation, strategic programs, and implementation of right-sized agile frameworks appropriate for the organization's use case (agile as a tool, not a dogma).

Project Manager

Electrifying driven businesses for rock star teams that lead and deliver results/ Author of The PM Pathway & Executing Excellence

Project management is more than processes. 

More than managing tasks, and checking off to-do lists. 

I did not expect transformation when I started down this career path.

I went into PM with a strong drive to achieve, make good money, and prove some people wrong.

It was all about action:
• Optimize
• Maximize
• Get things done
• Get everyone working together!

But then my eyes opened to a whole new world.

I didn't expect it to take me to:
• Emotional intelligence
• Personal growth
• Purpose in work
• Relationships
• Leadership
• Community

I have witnessed the toll this high-pressure industry can have. 

Without the right guidance, skills, and tools many fall behind with increased burnout, mental health and impact on personal lives. 

Because PM can lead to transformation. 

• PM can make dreams come true.
• PM is a fulfilling and lucrative career. 
• PM gives business the competitive advantage. 
• PM is a chance to lead projects that can change the world. 

Whether you are ready to:
→ Scale your career to Executive PM (EPM) 
→ Earn your PMP (Project Management Professional)
→ Or provide your team with PMP prep and/or leadership/PM workshops

We have your back!
