About Me

Mechanical Engineer with over 25 years of experience in product lifecycle management and coordinating complex technical organizations in international environments. I specialize in bringing structure to the 'messy middle' of execution, ensuring that timelines, budgets, and documentation remain flawless.Throughout my career—ranging from Project Manager to Business Unit Manager—I have led cross-functional teams and managed intricate workflows from initial planning to final delivery. I excel at tracking deliverables, managing stakeholders, and proactively identifying blockers before they impact the critical path.I offer a pragmatic, results-oriented approach for teams needing high-level coordination without the overhead of a full-time lead. I am highly organized, calm under pressure, and dedicated to the tactical details that get complex initiatives across the finish line
