About Sharee W.

After over a decade of invoicing and managing accounts receivable, I transitioned to a project manager role. As a project manager, I worked on acquisition from due diligence through integration. I was part of a team that implemented new software, which replaced three legacy systems in less than a year. I enjoy working on cross-functional teams to solve problems with business impact.My strengths include:• Analytical problem solving - searching for the root cause of problems.• Continuous learning & curiosity - A strong desire to learn and seek out information and context for deeper understanding.• Big picture thinker - connecting the dots by understanding the overall business and its processes.Outside of work, you will find me outdoors, traveling, reading, or listening to podcasts.
