About

I am a Senior Project Manager who values clarity, judgment, and follow-through, especially in environments where constraints are real and certainty is limited.

My perspective formed through work that required steady decision-making with limited inputs and imperfect conditions. Entering higher education later and building career momentum through varied, constraint-tight roles taught me to prioritize rigor over appearance and judgment over assumption.

Over time, I noticed a recurring pattern in the work around me: capable people struggling not because they lacked effort or skill, but because the systems they operated within quietly shaped behavior, incentives, and risk. I developed the Project Systems Framework to name those patterns and make them legible. I use it lightly, as a diagnostic lens rather than a prescription, to understand what is happening and why before decisions are made.

Outside of formal project roles, I have taken on responsibilities that reinforced patience, long-term thinking, and care for individual impact. I have been a proud foster parent to thirteen children, an experience that deepened my respect for stability, clear boundaries, and durable support. I am also a professional portrait photographer, a practice that sharpens my ability to see people clearly, communicate intent, and deliver under expectation. I regularly donate my time to animal shelters and foster injured animals, work that emphasizes responsibility without recognition.

These experiences do not sit apart from my professional life. They inform how I handle pressure, how I weigh tradeoffs, and consider the real-world impact of decisions.

I work best with organizations that value clear thinking, sound judgement, and outcomes that last.

I care about doing work that holds up, for the people who rely on it.
