I am Gabriel, an Ecuadorian-American creative and visionary Project Management Professional (PMP) with a proven record of leading projects from concept to completion in the higher education and government innovation spaces. My expertise combines technical and agile project management methodologies, analytics, and servant leadership. Proficient in project planning, timeline management, data-driven monitoring and evaluation, stakeholder management, quality assurance, and continuous process improvement, I guarantee the success of projects I undertake. Currently, I work at the Bloomberg Center for Government Excellence (GovEx) at Johns Hopkins University, where I lead a cross-functional team in delivering executive leadership programs that empower mayors and city leaders to create a data-driven and equitable public sector. My international experience spans across South America, particularly Ecuador, where I launched a higher education division for underserved students. Leveraging this experience, I have played a crucial role in expanding the organization's reach to 25+ Latin American cities. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Political Science from the University of Florida, PMP and Scrum Master (CSM) certifications, and am pursuing a Master's degree in Analytics and Artificial Intelligence at Georgia Tech University. This will further strengthen my expertise in AI and its applications in the educational and governmental sectors. In addition to my professional endeavors, I am a proud immigrant, father to Noah, and husband to Clara. I am also the co-founder of Agile Dharma Consulting, a company that offers project management coaching and training, as well as AI and analytics consulting. Our aim at Agile Dharma Consulting is to empower organizations with the knowledge, skills, and tools they need to succeed in today's rapidly changing business landscape.
