Overview
Through the addition of the Power Platform suite of tools such as Power Apps and Power Automate, I was able to create smart, targeted forms and automate numerous repetitive and time-consuming tasks and created reliable and useful automations and dashboards. This empowered me to streamline work and create faster regulatory flows allowing me to receive numerous awards and recognition for cost and time savings.

Dedicated professional with a passion for fostering collaborative team environments, implementing process simplification initiatives, and delivering innovative technical solutions. Known for a positive, outgoing demeanor, with extensive problem-solving and troubleshooting abilities, complemented by strong verbal, written, and visual communication skills.
I was an early adopter of using SharePoint to create accelerators, playbooks and toolkits for Pfizer. This put me in the position of being the subject matter expert on the topic and allowed me to assist in the creation and management of over 800 SharePoint sites. I have experience in migration from earliest versions to the current SharePoint Online version.
My unique background includes both creative design and technical troubleshooting skills. This makes me eminently suitable for creating useful and elegant interfaces and workflows. I truly understand that my work must be both technically proficient and joyful to use.
