About

With over decade of experience building and scaling B2B SaaS products — from zero-to-one launches to platforms serving 650,000+ users across enterprise and SMB segments. I operate at the intersection of strategy and execution. I've defined multi-year roadmaps, shipped AI-native features, led full platform rebranding, and driven outcomes that show up on the P&L — $1M+ in annual savings, 94% improvement in search efficiency, 95% reduction in configuration errors, 90% cost reduction through AI-powered localization. My experience spans the full SaaS lifecycle: discovery and prioritization, cross-functional team leadership, stakeholder alignment from IC to C-suite, and go-to-market execution across geographies. I've built for enterprise customers with complex compliance, payroll, and workforce needs — and for SMB customers who demand speed and simplicity in equal measure. What sets me apart: I don't just manage product. I own outcomes. Whether it's an API product that unlocks ecosystem integrations, an internal tool that eliminates manual toil, or an AI feature that makes a product genuinely smarter — I push for decisions that compound over time. Currently driving Workforce Management product strategy at Deltek-Replicon. Open to Senior PM, Principal PM, and Staff PM roles at SaaS companies where product depth and business impact both matter. 📌 Core expertise: Product Strategy · B2B SaaS · Enterprise SaaS · AI/ML Features · API Products · Workforce Management · Roadmapping · Agile/SAFe · Stakeholder Management · Go-to-Market
