About me
Setting out as a frontend engineer, the intersection of technology with user-focused design always intrigued me.
This fascination steered me towards product management, where I realized my true passion lies in orchestrating the bigger picture and working with a passionate team on building and optimizing the product.
With a solid technical foundation and a strategic outlook, I'm committed to delivering on both technical robustness and functionality while prioritizing user needs.
