Driven by Purpose: An Unconventional Path to Sustainable Tech
Driven by tenacity and a unique perspective from a non-traditional background, my focus is now firmly on the renewable energy sector. It's a field that deeply aligns with my technical acumen, expertise in Agile methodologies and process refinement, and commitment to sustainability. I am passionate about bridging IT and sustainability, leveraging technology not just for efficiency but to create meaningful, enduring environmental impact and shape the future of energy.
This drive and perspective were forged during my unconventional journey into IT—an audacious leap fueled by resilience. Transitioning from mechanical engineering, I relocated independently and quickly proved my ability to strategize and adapt, securing a leadership training role even before arriving. This adaptability led me to discover a passion for IT's potential for innovation, problem-solving, and optimization, prompting me to immerse myself in cybersecurity, networking, and project management and hone my skills in enhancing efficiency.

Expertise in Action: Delivering Measurable Operational Results
With a robust background in IT project management, cybersecurity, and networking, I specialize in leading cross-functional initiatives that enhance operational efficiency and strengthen data integrity. My approach centers on leveraging Agile methodologies, proactive risk management, and clear stakeholder communication to deliver impactful results. Currently, as a Vendor Management Project Manager at HMSA, I'm applying these skills to optimize critical business functions:
Optimized Vendor & Contract Management: Led initiatives using ServiceNow and Excel to reduce duplicate vendor entries by 80% and expired draft contracts by 96% through enhanced data structures and automated workflows.
Developed Proactive Risk Framework: Implemented a risk management system within ServiceNow, utilizing Excel for analysis, to proactively identify and mitigate vendor non-compliance and contract expiration risks.
Enhanced Collaboration & Tracking: Streamlined interdepartmental communication via ServiceNow workflows and improved project visibility using ServiceNow CWM for real-time tracking and MS Project for planning, ensuring transparency and on-time delivery supported by detailed Excel reporting.
These projects demonstrate my ability to dissect complex problems, implement effective solutions using tools like ServiceNow, Excel, and MS Project, and deliver measurable improvements in efficiency, compliance, and collaboration. I am eager to apply this proven expertise to drive strategic initiatives and operational excellence within the dynamic renewable energy sector.
