Digital Project Manager · Vancouver, BC
Ten years delivering technology projects end-to-end: from discovery, quoting and budgets through platform setup, launch and handoff. Equally comfortable advising clients as I am configuring the CMS myself.
Different industries, same job: understand what the client needs, scope it honestly, and deliver it on budget.
Scoped and led the move from an outsourced managed-service provider to an internal IT model. Selected and configured the RMM and ticketing platforms, rebuilt onboarding, and built the helpdesk team.
Result:An estimated $500K a year saved by replacing the MSP for 300 users and 100 VMs, including $50K from bringing backups in-house.
Project lead moving the College of Physicians and Surgeons of BC from perpetual Microsoft licensing to Office 365, coordinating vendors, stakeholders and rollout.
Result:A modern, subscription-based platform delivered within tight budget constraints.
Through my consultancy I scope, quote and deliver WordPress sites and Microsoft 365 environments, handling setup, configuration, content population and client handoff.
Result:Clients get a single point of contact from discovery to launch.
Founder and product lead. Ran competitive analysis, defined a phased roadmap, and scoped integrations for marine electronics, marina booking and live currency data across six core screens.
Result:A validated product concept with a clear, prioritized roadmap.
Managed a remote renovation for a high-net-worth private client: trades, materials and schedules coordinated to an island site with ferry-dependent logistics.
Result:Proof that the PM fundamentals travel well beyond software.
Leadership under pressureSVOP-licensed captain responsible for guest safety, trip planning and operations when weather, tides and plans change without warning.
Result:Calm, decisive calls when the plan shifts, which is every project, eventually.
Live client sites I've scoped, built and launched, across both Webflow and WordPress.
Product marketing site for an industrial non-stick coating: industry landing pages, downloadable case studies, a sample-kit request form and a blog.
slipcoat.com ↗WordPress · ElementorBooking-focused site for a two-yacht charter company: charter packages and pricing, destinations, FAQs, an Instagram feed and enquiry forms.
vancouveryachtlife.com ↗WebflowInvestor-facing site for a mineral exploration company with projects in Colombia and the Yukon: project pages, investor resources and presentations, news and drilling results.
forgeresourcescorp.com ↗Get to the real goal behind the request, check technical feasibility, and agree on what done looks like.
Turn scope into a clear proposal with deliverables, timeline and a budget the team can actually hit.
Keep designers, developers, vendors and the client aligned, tracking hours and burn as we go.
Hands-on for the last mile: platform configuration, content population, testing and go-live.
Documentation and training so the client can run it confidently, and a relationship that brings them back.
A decade across agency-style client work, in-house leadership and independent projects.
