Technical Product Leader with extensive experience in fast-paced technology environments, working across IoT, SaaS, and insurance industries. I bring a technical lens to product leadership while focusing on building solutions customers genuinely value. I specialize in connecting customer needs, business goals, and technical feasibility into clear product strategies and actionable roadmaps that deliver measurable value for both users and the business. As a former founder, I'm comfortable navigating the unknown — taking a mission-driven idea, backing it with data, and building a clear roadmap that delivers high-performance results.
