What I'm looking for

I seek a product role where I can lead agile teams, improve user experience, and drive measurable product outcomes in a collaborative environment.

I am a Product Owner and Business Analyst with 7+ years leading digital product development, agile delivery, and cross-functional collaboration. I specialize in backlog management, sprint planning, and refining requirements to deliver high-quality features with minimal rework.

I have driven measurable results — including a 90% UAT acceptance rate, a responsive web app rollout, and a 75% reduction in requirements gathering time — and I focus on improving user onboarding and operational efficiency through pragmatic product decisions.
