About Me

I'm a Product Manager with a focus on building excellent products that drive an organization's mission; backed by KPIs, performance metrics, and market research.

Substantial experience leading cross-functional collaborative teams in NA, EU, and APAC and defining the process to deliver software products with a vision and purpose using Lean & Agile methodologies.

I personally prefer to roll my sleeves up and lead by example. Comfortable working at ground level and 30,000 ft .

I measure📐my success, in my ability to develop and promote technologies that benefit the organization and its customers.
