Oct 2025 – Dec 2025
Product Manager
  • Owned product delivery for a consumer-facing AI chat and voice virtual assistant serving health insurance members, deflecting common inquiries and improving digital self-service efficiency. Applied VoC research using Miro and Lucid to produce customer journey maps and UX flows, translating member pain points into engineering design decisions in a regulated healthcare environment.
  • Managed end-to-end roadmap execution in Rally: decomposed program-level capabilities into Features and user stories, authored acceptance criteria with Given/When/Then structure, and maintained a groomed backlog that reduced sprint rework and improved PI predictability. Coordinated dependency mapping across engineering, QA, and business teams ahead of each PI planning cycle.
  • Collaborated with architects and engineering leads to assess future-state solution architecture for the AI assistant, evaluating integration touchpoints, API contracts, and data flows between member-facing front-end and back-end services. Translated technical constraints into prioritization decisions balancing delivery scope against platform readiness and compliance requirements.
  • Maintained project plan tracking milestones, dependencies, and risk register across engineering and business workstreams; produced structured status reporting for multiple stakeholder tiers including executive leadership.
Optum
Mar 2022 – Aug 2025
Technical Product Manager → Senior Technical Product Manager
  • Led strategy and execution of large-scale healthcare data migration initiatives spanning billing, payment, accounting, and finance datasets. Defined end-to-end dependency maps across data engineering, data governance, data quality, and platform teams — including data-ingestion sequencing, schema validation checkpoints, and lineage documentation to support regulatory compliance.
  • Designed a phased migration roadmap with milestone gates tied to data-ingestion protocol sign-off, encryption and access-control standards, gap analysis remediation, and downstream impact assessments across consumer-facing and internal reporting systems. Established go/no-go criteria for each phase to manage quality and compliance risk.
  • Served as technical liaison between business and engineering teams, translating dataset specifications and business rules into data mapping documents covering customer, product, and revenue-recognition field-level logic. Reduced UAT defect rates by resolving ambiguities in source-to-target mappings before development handoff. Drove trade-off decisions balancing migration speed, platform scalability, data quality, and regulatory risk across parallel workstreams.
  • Partnered with the Agile Release Train Engineer (RTE) to build a release-management framework defining environment promotion gates, rollback procedures, and data-security validation checkpoints required by healthcare regulatory standards (HIPAA-aligned). Managed risk register and escalation path for production deployments across Azure-hosted data environments.
Change Healthcare
Oct 2016 – Mar 2022
Product Owner → Product Lead
  • Translated complex data-migration requirements into structured Jira Epics, Features, and user stories, defining field-level acceptance criteria and data validation rules that gave engineering teams unambiguous build targets and reduced mid-sprint scope creep.
  • Led quarterly PI planning and PI readouts as Product Lead, including feature deliverable planning, capacity management, risk management, and internal/external dependency scoping across JIRA backlog user stories and anticipated sprint cycles to improve delivery forecasts.
  • Built a change-management process using ServiceNow for approval workflows and GitHub for version-controlled code promotion across dev, test, and production environments. Standardized the Atlassian toolchain (Jira, Confluence) and Aha! as the system of record for product strategy, backlog, and sprint execution — improving cross-team delivery transparency and audit traceability.
  • Defined requirements and acceptance criteria for cloud-based data pipelines ingesting data from Salesforce CRM and multiple operational source systems, delivering analytics-ready datasets to Tableau and Spotfire dashboards used by business stakeholders for operational and performance reporting.
Deloitte Consulting LLP
Mar 2008 – Jun 2016
Consultant → Senior Consultant → Specialist Senior
  • Led the master data management (MDM) component of a large-scale data-migration strategy, transitioning operational data from mainframe systems to Oracle ERP for a global convenience-store franchise. Designed and implemented data-conversion business rules and logic for one of the nation's top retail organizations to migrate operational datasets from mainframe systems to SAP ERP.
