I am a Senior Consultant with over 20 years of experience in IT project management, software testing, data science, and education. My career combines a proven ability to lead large-scale initiatives with a passion for mentoring and innovation, creating value in both financial outcomes and human capital. In my corporate career, I’ve transformed complex, high-risk projects into success stories. At IBM, I led a 500+ member testing team, saving $5.5M through Lean Six Sigma practices and establishing Testing Centers of Excellence (TCoEs). My expertise includes implementing Agile methodologies, automating workflows using tools like Selenium and JMeter, and resolving critical escalations. These efforts consistently delivered measurable success for clients across healthcare and IT sectors. As an educator, I’ve empowered 100+ students at The Princeton Review to achieve competitive GMAT, GRE, and SAT scores. Recently, I’ve extended my passion for teaching by developing IBM-collaborated data science courses for Coursera, crafting hands-on labs and projects in Python, R, and Tableau, combining real-world applications with academic rigor. Armed with a Master’s degree in Computer Science (Data Science) from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, I specialize in data-driven problem-solving, machine learning, and deep learning for healthcare. My work bridges the gap between technology and education, ensuring impactful outcomes for both industries and individuals. Whether turning around “red alert” projects or mentoring the next generation, I thrive at the intersection of innovation and collaboration. Through my journey, I aim to inspire others to achieve excellence and unlock their full potential.
