Projects don't manage themselves
Without a single owner driving timelines, decisions stall, scope creeps, and deadlines quietly slip. A dedicated PM keeps the work moving even when everyone else is busy doing their day job.
Remote / Virtual — Any Industry
Need a project manager — and not a Lean Six Sigma engagement? I can help with that too.
Sometimes you don't need a methodology. You need someone to take the project, run it end-to-end, keep stakeholders informed, and deliver it on time. That's exactly what this offering is — a dedicated, fully remote project manager available to any industry, with no consulting overhead, no certification track, and no Lean Six Sigma required.
100% Remote
Any Toolset

What this offering is
A standalone project manager — separate from any Lean Six Sigma work
My core practice is Lean Six Sigma consulting and certification. This is intentionally different. If you just need a steady hand to plan, run, and finish a project — without methodology, without a deliverable framework, without a transformation program — this is the right door.
What you get
- A dedicated, experienced project manager assigned to your initiative
- Plan, schedule, RACI, risk register, status reports — built and maintained
- Meeting facilitation, action tracking, and follow-through
- Stakeholder communication done for you, on a predictable cadence
- Vendor, agency, or cross-team coordination
- Clean closeout with documentation and lessons learned
What this isn't
- Not a Lean Six Sigma project (that's a separate offering — and I'm happy to point you there if it fits)
- Not a certification program
- Not a long discovery or assessment phase before work starts
- Not on-site — this is fully remote and virtual by design
- Not tied to a specific industry, tool, or template
Why this matters
Why projects need a real project manager
The pattern is almost always the same: capable people, important work, no single owner driving it. Here's what changes when one person is accountable for the project end-to-end.
Stakeholders deserve a single source of truth
Executives, vendors, and team members all need clear status — not five different versions of it. A PM consolidates updates, removes ambiguity, and protects your team from constant 'what's the status?' interruptions.
Risks should be surfaced before they become fires
Most project failures are predictable weeks in advance. A good PM tracks risks, dependencies, and blockers proactively so issues are addressed early — not explained after the fact.
Your time is better spent on the work
Subject matter experts, founders, and team leads shouldn't be buried in scheduling, follow-ups, and status decks. A PM frees your best people to focus on what they're actually best at.
How the engagement works
Lightweight to start. Disciplined to finish.
No heavy methodology, no template-heavy onboarding. Just a clear, repeatable cadence that keeps your project moving from kickoff to closeout.
- 01
Intake & alignment
A short kickoff call to understand the project, the people, the deadline, and what success looks like. No long discovery process — just enough to start delivering value immediately.
- 02
Plan & structure
I build the project plan, milestone schedule, RACI, risk register, and communication cadence — using whatever tools your team already lives in (Asana, Jira, Monday, ClickUp, Smartsheet, Notion, Trello, MS Project, or plain Google Sheets).
- 03
Drive execution
I run the standups, the working sessions, the stakeholder updates, and the follow-ups. I chase the open items, unblock the team, and keep decisions on the calendar instead of in someone's inbox.
- 04
Report & adjust
Clear weekly status — progress, risks, decisions needed, and what's next. When the plan needs to change, you'll know early, with options, not surprises.
- 05
Close & hand off
Every project closes with documentation, lessons learned, and a clean handoff so your team owns the outcome — not a binder of half-finished artifacts.
What you get, every week
The benefits of having a dedicated PM in your corner
- A dedicated point of contact for the entire project
- Realistic, defendable timelines — not optimistic guesses
- Weekly status updates your executives will actually read
- Risk and dependency tracking before things go sideways
- Meeting facilitation, agendas, and clear action items
- Vendor and cross-team coordination handled for you
- Scope and change control — protect your budget and dates
- Clean documentation, decisions log, and project closeout
Good fit for
Any industry. Any project that needs a finish line.
- Software rollouts, migrations, and integrations
- Operational launches, store openings, and expansions
- Marketing campaigns and product launches
- Compliance, audit, and certification initiatives
- Construction, facilities, and capital projects
- Internal transformations, reorgs, and tooling changes
- Grant-funded, government, and nonprofit programs
- Any project where 'who owns this?' isn't clearly answered
Why work with me as your PM
Senior judgment, calm execution, zero drama
You don't need a junior coordinator running your most important initiative. You need someone who has run hard projects, in messy environments, with demanding stakeholders — and delivered them.
Master Black Belt rigor — without forcing it on the project
I bring the discipline, structure, and stakeholder fluency from running large improvement programs. But on a PM engagement, I leave the methodology in the toolbox unless you ask for it.
Comfortable in any tool, any team
I adapt to how your organization already works. No forced platform switch, no template fight. Your team keeps using what they use — I make it work.
Communication that earns trust
Clear, written, on-time updates. Honest risk reporting. No surprises, no hand-waving, no jargon. Executives and individual contributors both leave my updates knowing exactly where things stand.
Recent project work
Remote PM engagements — before and after
A few representative projects I've run as a dedicated remote project manager. No methodology lift, no transformation program — just owning the project and getting it across the finish line.
B2B SaaSAsana + Slack
CRM migration (Salesforce → HubSpot)
11 weeks engagement
The challenge
Migration had stalled twice. Three internal teams, two external vendors, no single owner. Sales leadership was losing confidence the cutover would happen this fiscal year.
What I did
Took ownership of the full plan in Asana, ran a weekly cross-team standup, built a shared decision log, and managed both vendors against milestone-based deliverables. Surfaced four hidden dependencies in week one that the team had been working around for months.
Before
- Projected go-liveSlipped twice, no firm date
- Open action items140+ untracked
- Stakeholder confidenceLow — escalated to CEO
- Status reportingInconsistent / ad-hoc
After
- Go-liveDelivered on the re-baselined date
- Open action itemsAll tracked, weekly burn-down
- Stakeholder confidenceRestored — CEO updates weekly
- Status reportingWeekly RAG status, every Friday
Outcome
Cutover completed 11 weeks after engagement start with zero data loss and a clean handoff to the in-house RevOps team.
Professional services firmSmartsheet + Microsoft Teams
Multi-office expansion (3 new locations)
5 months engagement
The challenge
Three new offices opening in overlapping windows. Real estate, IT, HR, and marketing workstreams all running independently. Leadership had no consolidated view of what was on track, slipping, or at risk.
What I did
Built a single master schedule across all four workstreams in Smartsheet, established a weekly leadership review with a one-page RAG dashboard, and ran focused unblock sessions whenever a workstream went amber. Coordinated landlord, IT vendor, and signage vendor timelines against hard lease commencement dates.
Before
- Cross-team visibilityFour separate trackers
- Open at-risk itemsUnknown — no central log
- Office #1 readinessBehind by ~3 weeks
- Leadership review cadenceReactive / when fires hit
After
- Cross-team visibilityOne master plan, one dashboard
- Open at-risk itemsTracked weekly, owners assigned
- All three officesOpened on or before lease date
- Leadership review cadence30-min standing weekly review
Outcome
All three offices opened on schedule. Zero rent paid on dark space, and the leadership team kept the same dashboard format for the next expansion wave.
Nonprofit / grant-fundedMonday.com + Google Workspace
Federal grant program rollout
9 months (full grant year) engagement
The challenge
Newly awarded multi-year federal grant with strict reporting requirements, multiple sub-recipient partners, and a small internal team that had never managed a grant of this scale. Risk of clawback if reporting deadlines were missed.
What I did
Built the program plan in Monday.com aligned to grant milestones and reporting deadlines, set up a partner check-in cadence with each sub-recipient, and produced the quarterly federal narrative reports in draft form for the executive director's review. Maintained an audit-ready evidence folder for every deliverable.
Before
- Reporting readinessManual scramble each quarter
- Sub-recipient coordinationEmail-only, inconsistent
- Audit trailScattered across drives & inboxes
- Internal hours / week on PM~15 hrs (ED + PM staff)
After
- Reporting readinessDrafts ready 2 weeks early, every quarter
- Sub-recipient coordinationMonthly structured check-ins
- Audit trailSingle, organized evidence library
- Internal hours / week on PM~3 hrs (ED review only)
Outcome
All four quarterly federal reports submitted on time with zero compliance findings. Grant renewed for year two with the same reporting structure carried forward.
