The Rockstar Project Manager.

Driving successful remote projects with creativity, transparency, and execution.8+ years of experience leading teams and delivering high-impact change management projects.

Transparency, compassion, creativity, and critical thinking define my approach to project management. My mission is to lead teams toward excellence, balancing efficiency with innovation.

When I was in college, I assumed project management was just a series of processes to push projects from start to finish. I thought knowing the basics would be enough.

But great project management is so much more than that.

After graduating, I started as a developer. I quickly realized there was more to leading projects than just following protocols. This realization sparked my curiosity and led me to these guiding principles:

  • Understand team culture & processesObserve, communicate, and learn before implementing changes.
  • Collaborate on project planningEngage the team in shaping the roadmap for success.
  • Encourage transparency & inclusionEnsure every voice is heard and valued.
  • Make informed leadership decisionsChallenge unrealistic requirements with data-driven insights.
  • Refine processes continuouslyImprove workflows through iterative enhancements.
  • Build trust & leadershipEmpower team members to grow as leaders, not just contributors.
  • Push boundariesInspire teams to explore beyond their comfort zones.
  • Embrace constructive feedbackUse critiques as fuel for personal and professional growth.

Project management isn’t just about structure or keeping stakeholders happy by saying “yes” to everything. It’s about fostering trust, balancing priorities, and making informed decisions that benefit both the project and the team. That’s the philosophy I bring to every project I lead.

Hey!

You‘re probably still reading through this message because you‘re curious about who I am. Well... here are more things about me, but I need to cut this short. Because... you know... marketing... I need to get in a call with you, so you can ask me all those questions in person! So let‘s start! I‘m a person who is very passionate about the things I do in life.

I am a project manager right now because I love leading people to their success. I‘m also currently an International Student, taking IT Security and Infrastructure here in Canada. Outside of the career world, I do a lot of stuff; I travel, play musical instruments, sing, draw, program custom apps, I‘m a race car driver, handyman, photographer (You should check my instagram for cool pics!) and much more.

I believe that there is so much to live that you should turn every day into an adventure. Do you wanna to be a part of my adventure? What are you waiting for? If you call now you‘ll get a chance to hear more cool stuff! But wait! There‘s more! If you hire me, you won‘t just get my positive vibe and energy(well, not like this in person, this is too much), you‘ll also hire someone who‘s smart, strategic, resourceful, and proactive!
