Project Manager, 2019-2020
Due to a death in my family, closing my parent’s estate, relocating to a new city, and COVID-19, I have taken this opportunity to complete my Agile Scrum training. During this time, I honed my M365 skills, Teams, Visio, Project, and a few non-Microsoft products too, e.g., Adobe Acrobat Pro DC and EdrawMax (much like Visio but superior in many ways). I have created amazing PowerPoint decks to include awesome timelines, I know/created Battlecards, one-page Slicks, and other sales artifacts. My PM background is very robust. I have managed project budgets, engineering resources, clients, large asset deployment & tracking (domestic and International), change control, RMAs, staging, training, c-staff presentations, and other duties as required. I have worked within ConnectWise, ServiceNow, Seismic, along with other management tools.
