2012
Owned My Own Mortgage Company
As a mortgage broker and business owner, I helped clients secure over $4.5 Million in residential loans annually. This was my crash course in managing people, paperwork, pressure—and profits.
Big Impact at Ericsson
I managed over $150 Million in wireless infrastructure projects, led teams across five states, and became a SAP Super-User. I earned national recognition for helping Ericsson reach $1Billion in revenue and was known for turning complex tech into clear results.
Led Federal Government Projects at General Services Administration
Worked with agencies; Dept of Veterans Affairs, Dept of Defense (Army), Dept of Interior DOI, and Homeland Security, etc. managing IT infrastructure and software projects up to $15M. I was the go-to for planning, executing, and closing projects that really mattered.
Earned My PMP Certification
With my PMP under my belt, I stepped into bigger roles with bigger stakes—combining strategy, structure, and leadership to drive results.

Major Wins at Delta Air Lines
At Delta, I helped launch two subsidiaries (Delta Material Services & Delta Flight Products), managing a $13.7M IT project with teams across the U.S. and India. From building pricing systems to designing IT infrastructure—I made sure everything ran like a well-oiled machine.
