What I'm looking for

Targeting a Sr. / Principal PM role at a high-tech, high-growth company. Focused on delivering innovative products, embracing cutting-edge technologies like AI, and mentoring emerging talent. Committed to being both a strategic leader and an active, hands-on contributor.

With a decade of experience in tech, my career includes pivotal roles, from guiding Wrike to a unicorn status as its first Product Manager hire, to navigating product-market fit for new offerings at Toptal. The products I've managed have both achieved business objectives like revenue growth and also significantly elevated user satisfaction.

I've managed the entire product lifecycles, including in-depth user research, crafting vision and roadmapping, guiding development, assuming strategic leadership in major cross-functional launches, aligning go-to-market strategies, and empowering customer-facing teams. My technical proficiency is evident in my work with APIs and integrations, complemented by a familiarity with analytics tools that enable data-driven decision-making.

Looking forward, I'm excited about stepping into Principal Product Manager roles where I can take on complex challenges. I am a hands-on contributor but equally enthusiastic about mentoring aspiring talent. Fascinated by AI's potential, I am eager to explore this revolutionary technology, focusing on creating user-centric solutions.
