My expertise lies in utilizing Agile/Scrum, Hybrid, and Waterfall methodologies, along with tools such as Aha, Jira, Confluence, and Rally. I am skilled in facilitating SCRUM ceremonies, managing team capacity, and maintaining metrics for visibility. By promoting collaboration and resolving conflicts, I ensure teams remain focused on delivering high-quality products. Additionally, my strong client relationship management, communication, and problem-solving skills have contributed to successful project outcomes.
