As an Agile Delivery Professional with over 15 years of experience across global gaming and tech industries, I specialize in driving strategic initiatives and delivering high-impact projects through Agile methodologies. Currently at Entain, I collaborate with Agile squads and cross-functional teams to enable technology innovation, align business objectives, and streamline delivery processes — fueling business growth in a fast-paced, hybrid work environment. Previously, I led game production efforts at Mobile Premier League (MPL) and Electronic Arts (EA), where I managed end-to-end delivery of multi-platform games and LiveOps projects. My passion lies in leveraging Agile best practices to enhance team productivity, optimize workflows, and ensure seamless stakeholder alignment. I thrive on solving complex challenges, fostering cross-team collaboration, and delivering quality products that engage millions of users worldwide. Core strengths include Agile Project Management, Program Management, Scrum, Cross-functional Team Leadership, and Product Delivery. My journey has been enriched by hands-on experience managing distributed teams, driving innovation in live game operations, and overseeing high-stakes releases on multiple platforms. I’m always excited to connect with fellow professionals passionate about Agile, game development, and tech innovation.
