Alberta Blue Cross – Microsoft Active Directory Upgrade / Consolidation

Role: Sr. Project Manager – IT Transformation / App Development

Project: I led the Microsoft Active Directory Upgrade and Consolidation project, which involved migrating the Active Directory system to a supported version across multiple locations. This included building a replicated virtual environment for testing and mitigating authentication risks to ensure a smooth, risk-free migration. I also implemented best practices for Windows Internet Name Service (WINS) phase-out and DHCP upgrade, improving security and operational efficiency.

Skills: Active Directory, IT Infrastructure, Risk Mitigation, Agile Project Management

Impact: The project involved recovering over 70% of licensing overspend through vendor negotiations and executing a flawless, non-disruptive upgrade within a 24/4 operational framework. My leadership ensured a successful transition with no business downtime and fully aligned systems.
