Executive Summary

• My career has provided with more than 20 years experience in the wireless, software development, internet technology IT and telecommunications industry as a technician, manager and senior project manager. The natural ability to lead, instruct and effectively communicate company and project goals to team members has been a valuable natural resource. As the Lead Project Manager and Senior Project Manager in various industries, my skills and knowledge in the Wireless, Utilities, Public Safety and Software development sectors has allowed me to sharpen my skills in a wide variety of technical and service related ventures. I have successfully led projects in excess of 30 million with large utility corporations as Puget Sound Energy , Pacific Gas and Electric , PacifiCorp Energy , MidAmerican Energy , Avista Energy , Center Point Energy and the City of Yellowknife Canada . My recent accomplishments include projects for software development and deployment of the Interactive Voice Response System for CenterPoint Energy 4.7MM and an intelligent traffic management software development for South Carolina Department of Transportation 611K .
• Spearheading strategic planning and implementation of project management processes are the keys to successful projects. I take the extra steps to promote team players during network/software deployment while keeping the focus on the financial goals with budget, forecasting and scope management. Leading teams to efficiently and effectively plan, execute and deliver client requirements and applying the skills with PMBOK methodology to the final project close out are one of my many attributes. I have the ability to successfully obtain, organize and communicate performance information to stakeholders, sponsors and management, as needed, for corporate reporting.
• As a Senior Project Manager, I have worked in many states across the USA and abroad in Venezuela for the Digitel deployment of the cellular network and was factory trained in Helsinki, Finland for network testing. Network deployment from the cradle to the grave over the past 12 years as a project manager has given me opportunities to enhance my skills for delivery and execution. Small scale to very large scale projects have their own set of challenges and I have the overall experience to successfully deliver across all size of projects.
