Project Manager in Frisco, TX, United States

Led the program, which included data center build-out, software development, and workstation integration with biometrics hardware (iris cameras, photo cameras, fingerprint capture devices), legacy COBOL systems, and existing national criminal databases (AFIS system).

The primary purpose of this program was to allow the Ministry of Interior to better manage and monitor illegal border crossings into the Kingdom. It was also expected that the program would help in the identification and apprehension of persons on national and international travel ban lists.

The workstations were installed at selected prisons, all borders, passport, and civil offices in the country. This amounted to the receipt/build/ship/ and install of 1,700 workstations (10,000 parts) to over 500 locations.

The program included building five mobile vans with satellite communications to enable biometrics enrollment in the country's remote areas. It included the development of hand-held devices where patrolmen could insert a citizen ID card, capture a live fingerprint of the person, and validate the person's identity against databases.

My program team consisted of 50 professionals, and we completed the program within schedule and budget.

As a member of the RFI/RFP process team who analyzed bid proposals, reviewed demonstrations, and selected the winning bidder for the project, I was given the task to lead the initiative's implementation and support.

The purpose of this program was to allow the marketing team to develop, execute, and analyze marketing journeys in days rather than weeks.

I managed a 12-person cross-functional scrum team that consisted of developers, integration engineers, testers, product owners, external vendors with integration points to the CDP, the primary customer (marketing and data analytics groups), and the third-party SaaS engineers.

The primary work that was completed included the implementation and configuration of the SaaS product, training of the marketing and data analytics team on the use of the product, and multiple data integrations to the product from internal and external sources. This was primarily an integration effort, where most data sources were in AWS or the Neiman Marcus Data Warehouse (SnowFlake).

We were able to complete the initial implementation ahead of a very aggressive schedule requirement and under budget.

This program included the development of a mobile app, tablet app, web-based dashboard, reports, and a comprehensive content management system. It also integrated with a predictive analytics engine that would provide the physician's insight into the patient's condition and automatically send the appropriate communications accordingly.

This program's primary purpose was to provide more direct interaction between pediatrics physicians and their patients, one that can monitor patients' asthma status and communicate accurately and effectively with the patient without needing a physician visit. This was targeted to at-risk populations, as they are less likely to schedule appointments with physicians.
In addition to managing the team, I wrote the requirements, user stories, mock-ups, and managed the mobile development activities by a local third party. This required in-depth work with several physicians to understand and get the business requirements and story documented correctly.

Managed a team of five professionals and worked closely with the client team to complete and document the discovery of migration assets and plan for and complete the migration.

The primary purpose of this project was to consolidate operations into the cloud and close down the necessary elements of their data center.

There were about 500 users to be migrated, and application considerations included legacy and hosted applications, as well as some MS Access applications that were used to update legacy databases manually.

This program utilized a dispersed team of about 20 engineers. Locations included (France, Netherlands, Colombia, and multiple locations in the USA).

The program included software and hardware development, and integration with legacy State COBOL applications.

Member pharmacies were taking months to build annual cost models for drug purchases in Excel. I designed and managed the development of a costing model that the client believed could not be done. Using OOO, Java, and SQL server, we coded and implemented this in about three months.
