I’m a Senior Product Manager with over ten years of work experience and a deep-rooted passion for driving growth and innovation in B2B & B2C SaaS companies.
My academic training in Computer Science and Interactive Media, coupled with hands-on experience in Product, Service, UX and Interaction Design, has shaped me into a strategic and systematic thinker. This ensures that the products I work on are not only user-friendly but also aligned with business goals. Beyond the tech world, my history in art and cinema adds a layer of creativity and storytelling to my approach in product management.Experience
