What I Do

Services

Seven ways to bring in 20 years of delivery experience — drawn directly from the projects and roles on record, not a generic services menu. Available full-time, part-time, or fractional depending on what the engagement needs. Most clients end up touching two or three of these.

PM / Agile

Agile Delivery & Program Management

End-to-end ownership of complex programs — from stakeholder workshops and sprint planning to release — with Scrum Master and Project Director experience across enterprise and government initiatives.

Analysis

Business & Systems Analysis

Requirements engineering, BPMN/UML process modeling, and technical specification writing that turns ambiguous business needs — including AI and automation initiatives — into buildable, testable system designs.

BI / Data

Business Intelligence & Data Analytics

Dashboard design and data-flow architecture in Power BI, Tableau, and Apache Superset, backed by hands-on SQL work across MS SQL Server and PostgreSQL.

AI / GenAI

AI-Augmented Delivery

Generative AI, prompt engineering, and agentic-workflow development (LangChain, LangGraph, crewAI) applied inside real PM and BI engagements — currently building an agentic AI system for autonomous decision-making and process optimization. A capability layered onto delivery work, not sold as a standalone build.

AI / Governance

AI Readiness & Governance Advisory

Practical AI-readiness assessments and lightweight governance guardrails for teams adopting AI — which processes actually fit, what to pilot first, and how to keep it accountable — grounded in hands-on delivery experience, not a vendor pitch deck.

Infrastructure

IT Infrastructure & Systems Advisory

On-site infrastructure health assessments, network and server audits, and technology rollouts — from multinational office reviews to full surveillance-system deployment.

ERP / Enterprise

ERP & Enterprise Systems Implementation

Gap analysis, customization, and rollout of HR, finance, and Microsoft-stack systems — Power Platform, SharePoint, Azure — for cross-border teams.

The Toolbox

Skills & Expertise

The technical and domain depth behind the services above — every tool here has shipped in a real engagement, not a training sandbox.

Real badge artwork and verify links are now live for everything hosted on Credly, Simplilearn, SCRUMstudy, and DeepLearning.AI. Alison blocks automated fetching outright, and most Coursera-hosted certificates sit behind a login wall, so those categories still show text entries rather than clickable badges — send the individual Alison/Coursera links mapped to their exact certificate names and I'll wire those in too.
