About

Agile Coach, Agile Delivery Leader and AI-enabled Delivery Intelligence practitioner with 15+ years of experience across banking, financial services, telecommunications and healthcare, leading and coaching teams, leaders and stakeholders in complex enterprise technology environments across global markets. Experienced in Agile transformation and delivery improvement across Scrum, Kanban and Agile-at-Scale (SAFe), with strong expertise in Agile coaching, team maturity, delivery governance, dependency and risk management, release planning, stakeholder alignment, delivery metrics, Jira and Azure DevOps. My approach goes beyond teaching Agile frameworks. I train and coach through delivery-failure-driven scenarios, guided case-study simulations and practical insights drawn from real enterprise delivery work—helping teams understand not only how Agile practices work, but where delivery breaks down, why it happens, and how teams can improve execution, predictability and delivery outcomes. I also bring a practical AI dimension to Agile delivery through AI-enabled Delivery Intelligence, Generative AI and workflow automation. This includes applying AI to requirements, user stories, backlog understanding, documentation, communication, delivery reporting, delivery-health analysis, risk and dependency identification, and day-to-day Agile work—while emphasizing responsible AI use and human judgment. Through Agilivance, I support organizations with Agile capability development and delivery improvement through instructor-led and customized enterprise learning, including Agile onboarding for new team members, Agile team upskilling and organization-wide Agile capability development. Programs combine practical Agile execution with real Jira and Azure DevOps workflows, case simulations, AI-enabled delivery practices and delivery-health perspectives. The objective is to help organizations move beyond framework adoption toward stronger execution discipline, earlier risk visibility, improved delivery predictability and more data-driven, AI-enabled delivery environments.
