About

I'm a product manager who builds 0-to-1 products that solve real customer problems and drive revenue. My background is my greatest strength: I started as a software engineer at Siemens, spent 5 years leading enterprise platforms and IoT products, then moved into growth and strategy at an AI-driven startup. I vibe code when I need to understand what's possible, but I spend most of my time talking to customers, modeling business impact and figuring out what to build next. What I've built recently: - ML-powered pricing engine that drove 28% revenue lift by helping customers make better purchasing decisions with real-time information - Redesigned checkout experience based on 15+ user interviews, improving conversion - Enterprise cybersecurity platform strategy serving global teams at Siemens - IoT sensor products for mission-critical infrastructure used across the world - Revenue generation and monetization strategies, including creator partnership models What makes me different: I'm technical to debate architecture with engineers (former SWE, built full-stack products). Customer-obsessed to run research and redesign flows. Strategic to model unit economics and prioritize ruthlessly. And I ship. I care about outcomes, not output. My focus areas: Growth product management • 0-to-1 product development • ML/AI products • Platform products • B2B SaaS • Monetization strategy • Product analytics • Customer research • Cross-functional leadership Where I am now: Finishing my MBA at Michigan State (May 2026), specializing in Business Analytics and Supply Chain Management. Leading the Multicultural MBA Association as President, tutoring and mentoring 30+ students, and staying technical by building side projects. CSPO certified. What I'm looking for: Product Manager, Technical Product Manager, Product Strategy, or Strategy & Operations roles at companies building growth products, platforms, ML solutions, or marketplaces where I can combine technical depth with customer obsession and business thinking. Let's connect if you're building something meaningful.
