Summary
With over 15 years of global project management experience in features, doc-style series, advertising, and live events, I've consistently delivered exceptional results. Leading and mentoring teams worldwide, I excel in budgeting, project scheduling, monitoring the progress of department milestones, client collaboration, and ensuring top-tier quality.
