Who I am

My name is Eva Weiss. I'm a program and PMO leader based in Brooklyn who has spent 15+ years at the intersection of technology, finance, and people — overseeing project portfolios, managing budgets and forecasts, establishing governance, and driving programs from planning through completion. More than half of my experience was in Agile Delivery.

The path I walked

  1. Where I started

    QA lead

    MFA in Computer Arts

  2. Then

    Technical producer

  3. Next

    Product owner

  4. After that

    Project manager

    MBA in Finance

  5. Today

    Program leader

My path has been deliberately wide: QA lead and technical producer in EdTech, product owner in media, project manager in healthcare and advertising, and program leadership in real estate technology. That range means I'm equally comfortable in a sprint review, a budget defense, or an executive steering meeting — and I can translate fluently between all three.

I'm known for analytical problem-solving, proactive risk management, and building accountable, high-performing teams through Agile coaching. I hold a PMP, Scrum and SAFe certifications, an MBA in Finance, and an MFA in Computer Arts — structure and craft, in equal measure.
