What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, where I can drive impactful product strategies and contribute to meaningful user experiences.

I am a purpose-driven Product Manager who blends strategic clarity with deep empathy for users. I’ve led cross-functional teams in building AI-powered tools, recruitment platforms, and culture-centered marketplaces, always focusing on real human impact. My approach combines the discipline of research with the adaptability of agile execution, ensuring that I translate human needs into meaningful, scalable solutions.

At Zimcrest Technologies, I have successfully collaborated with teams to refine product features based on experimental data, enhancing customer satisfaction and retention rates. My role involves acting as a liaison between business, design, and engineering teams to ensure alignment throughout the product development lifecycle. I am passionate about empowering people through product development, believing that it is not just about shipping features but about creating impactful solutions.

Previously, as a Product Manager Intern at Enoverlab, I led a team to develop a Minimum Viable Product for a platform aimed at Indigenous communities, ensuring cultural relevance through user insights. My experience in legal program management has also equipped me with strong analytical and stakeholder management skills, which I leverage to drive product strategy and execution.
