About

I don’t just manage projects—I make sure they deliver. As a Senior Project Manager at Merkle, I lead high-priority initiatives across data, customer experience, and digital ecosystems—ensuring execution stays aligned with business goals, timelines, and measurable outcomes. My approach is simple: bring structure to complexity and turn strategy into results. What I do best: • Drive cross-functional teams across business, tech, and analytics • Deliver complex projects on time, within scope, and without chaos • Improve workflows and execution efficiency • Translate business strategy into actionable delivery plans With a background in research, analytics (YouGov), and fraud analysis (Tata AIG), I bring a strong data-driven mindset into every decision. I’m particularly interested in: • Digital transformation projects • Data-driven delivery environments • High-growth, execution-focused teams If you're working on something that requires clarity, ownership, and execution—let’s connect.
