I am a certified Agile Coach, Advanced Certified ScrumMaster® and Certified SAFe® Advanced Scrum Master (and repentant Project Management Professional®) with 10+ years of experience in the project and product space. After realizing waterfall and I were never going to be friends, I found Agile, joined a full-stack software shop, and never looked back. Continuous learning, personally and professionally, is my happy place.

As a servant-leader, I help people work better together by turning Agile principles into everyday habits that improve flow, collaboration, and outcomes. I support teams by fostering continuous improvement, removing organizational impediments, and encouraging self-organization and cross-functional growth. 

Whether positioned as an Agile Coach or a Scrum Master, I blend frameworks, coaching techniques, and creative team-building practices to help teams move from “doing Agile” to living it.

⭐️ What I'm Known For:

• Radical transparency that builds trust. I say the "inside thoughts" out loud and create psychological safety by asking the "stupid" questions without blame or judgment. 

• A realistic, grounded approach to problem-solving. I help teams navigate the unknown by focusing on what is actually within our sphere of influence and avoiding performative problem-solving. 

• Steady leadership in complex situations. I help teams stay focused, adaptive, and aligned, cutting through the noise so we can chart a path forward together. 

Outside of work, my hobbies include maintaining my 100+ year-old house, doting over my aging rescue dog, buying way too much on Amazon, bingeing Netflix, and deciding what to make for dinner before inevitably settling on brinner (breakfast for dinner). 

I’m based in Pittsburgh, PA and always happy to connect with others who share my interests.
