About

As a Senior Technical Program Manager at Amazon, I leverage my CSM certification and over six years of experience in managing complex projects in the domains of big data, automation, and product development. I work with cross-functional teams, vendors, and business stakeholders to deliver high-quality solutions that enhance customer engagement, optimize advertising, and enable data-driven marketing. Using the team's strategic goals as context, I negotiate with stakeholders to achieve mutually successful outcomes and elevate our team's performance to go beyond committed outcomes. I manage the full life cycle of multiple enterprise-level initiatives, from requirements gathering and architectural design to customer and customer service turnover. I also prepare sprint plans, strategies, and project management plans, following the standards of project management methodologies and best practices.
