About Casey Herman

With nearly a decade of experience in software development, I transitioned into management to leverage my dual background in Computer Science and Business Management, complemented by an MBA from Northwood University\'s DeVos School of Management. This unique blend of technical and business acumen has equipped me to excel in project management and agile practices. As a Project Manager, I collaborate with cross-functional teams to define project scope, establish milestones, and mitigate risks, ensuring successful project delivery. My passion for agile methodologies led me to become a Scrum Master, where I focus on fostering high-performing teams. I am dedicated to facilitating continuous improvement, removing obstacles, and aligning team efforts with broader business objectives. I thrive on coaching teams to optimize their performance through agile frameworks, and I am committed to my own continuous learning and development. Looking ahead, I am eager to grow as a leader and support teams in enhancing their agility, productivity, and overall impact. I welcome connections with like-minded professionals who share a passion for continuous improvement, agile practices, and the art of building exceptional software.
