Strategic Leadership for Complex Portfolios

As the Director of PMO at Allied Properties REIT, I oversee portfolios encompassing 10–30+ projects annually, consistently achieving 90% on-time and on-budget delivery. I've spearheaded modernization programs across leasing, tenant/vendor management, energy management, inspections, HRIS, and other critical systems. My ability to establish robust portfolio governance processes, manage stakeholder relationships, and continuously improve PM methodologies has been key to driving successful outcomes.

Driving Transformation through Technology

  • Participating in Morguard's multimillion-dollar ERP implementation, replacing JDE with Yardi 7S and integrating with Concur, ADP, and Propidex.

  • Managing a diverse portfolio of projects at Sienna Senior Living focused on Yardi solutions and other transformational initiatives.

  • Leading the final stages of Chartwell Retirement Residences' national rebranding initiative impacting 200+ locations.

  • Spearheading the Lawson (now Infor) HRIS upgrade project at Metroland.

Across these diverse projects, I've honed my skills in requirements gathering, vendor selection and management, budgeting, risk mitigation, change management, and user training

Bridging the Gap between Technology and Business

One of my key strengths is the ability to bridge the gap between technical and non-technical stakeholders. Whether I'm collaborating with IT teams, executives, subject matter experts, or end-users, I'm able to translate complex technical concepts into understandable business terms and align solutions with organizational goals. This has been critical in driving adoption and realizing the full benefits of technology investments.

Expertise in Emerging Technologies

I'm passionate about staying at the forefront of technological advancement and leveraging emerging solutions to drive innovation. I hold a Master's degree in Blockchain and FinTech and have a strong knowledge of NFTs, DeFi, cryptocurrencies, and the Metaverse. I'm also deeply engaged in exploring the potential of artificial intelligence to revolutionize project management and business operations.
