01 — About

Coordinating
people, plans,
and outcomes.

I'm a project coordination professional based in Toronto, ON with an Electrical Engineering background and a Master of Science in Project Management (Construction Specialization) from Northeastern University.

My experience spans multi-site telecom operations, vendor coordination, procurement, budget tracking, and cross-functional delivery across Canada and India. I've been promoted for consistently keeping projects on track, documentation visible, and stakeholders informed.

I bring a structured, process-driven approach to every project — with the interpersonal skills to make it work with real teams under real pressure.

Cross-functional Delivery
Aligning internal teams, third-party vendors, and leadership around shared timelines and deliverables — with clear documentation and consistent follow-through.
02
Budget & Procurement
Preparing cost estimates, purchase orders, and budget tracking frameworks that keep projects within scope and stakeholders confident in spend visibility.
03
Reporting & Stakeholder Communication
Building KPI dashboards, status reports, and communication cadences that keep decision-makers informed and projects moving — even in complex, fast-paced environments.
