As a Technical Program Manager at Visa, I manage large scale, cross divisional projects with budgets up to $20M, working with business and technology subject matter experts to define scope, create estimates, develop budgets, and produce documentation. I have over four years of experience in technical project management, data analysis, and networking, with a Master of Science in Management Information Systems from the University of Arizona.I hold regular cross organizational management briefings, and proactively identify and mitigate risks and issues. I utilize my hard and soft skills to influence participants of all levels towards a common goal, and to identify and manage dependencies and impacts for complex technical projects.
