About

Project & Risk Management | Portfolio Management | Driving Change in Sustainability, ESG & Digital Transformation I’m a results-driven Project and Risk Manager with over a decade of experience leading enterprise-scale initiatives across aviation, IT, and fintech — currently managing project portfolios at SITA, where technology meets mission-critical operations. My expertise spans strategic planning, portfolio governance, cross-functional delivery, and stakeholder engagement, with a proven record of executing complex programs on time and within budget. I’m passionate about building high-performing teams, mitigating risks proactively, and aligning project outcomes with organizational strategy. As I advance my career, I’m focused on applying these same principles to sustainability and ESG-driven transformation — leading initiatives that balance business performance with social and environmental responsibility. I believe that disciplined project management and data-driven decision-making are key enablers of meaningful, lasting impact.
