Eduardo Barron

Eduardo Barron - Coming from a tough neighborhood in South Phoenix, I was always curious about how the world works. I was unique in my family and surroundings being someone who truly loved computers. While my friends pursued other careers, I wanted to be different knowing that I already had an Agile mindset, I just didn't know it. Achieving an IT degree and working for several years, I pursued an MBA in Global Management from Thunderbird. While at T-bird, I was exposed to formal project management and something called "Agile". I immediately became an Agile enthusiast which brings me to what I do today, managing multiple Scrum teams and Nationwide Insurance. I don't consider myself just a Scrum Master, but someone who is a Change Agent for the Agile Practice. For the past 5 years, I have been trying to transform the way we work to a more efficient and quality based approach. I am proud to say that my teams don't just say they are Agile, they have the Agile mindset.
