About
As a Senior Project Manager for IBM for over 12 years, I have developed a proven track record of successfully leading complex projects, collaborating with cross-functional teams, and delivering results that exceed client expectations. My experience has given me a deep understanding of project management methodologies, budgeting, risk management, and stakeholder management. I have also developed strong leadership, communication, and problem-solving skills, which have enabled me to effectively manage and motivate teams towards project success.
In addition to my corporate experience, I have also owned and managed successful businesses for over 10 years. These experiences have provided me with a unique perspective on entrepreneurship, marketing, sales, and financial management. As a business owner, I have learned how to adapt to changing market conditions, identify new opportunities, and grow my business sustainably.
I am also deeply passionate about sustainability and environmental conservation, and I have been an active Volunteer Project Manager and Event Coordinator for the Plastic Ocean Project. Through this role, I have developed skills in community engagement, fundraising, event coordination, and volunteer management. I have led multiple successful events and campaigns, raising awareness and funds to reduce plastic waste in our oceans.
I believe my combination of corporate, entrepreneurial, and volunteer experiences, coupled with my passion for sustainability, make me a strong candidate for a role in climate change.
