I build travel marketplaces from concept through launch-ready booking and payment experiences.
What I'm looking for
I've taken Groundtier, a travel booking marketplace, from concept to a fully tested, launch-ready MVP in under nine months with zero external funding. I owned product strategy, pricing, UX, payments, supplier acquisition, legal compliance, and go-to-market.
I designed the end-to-end booking experience in Webflow and Make.com, rebuilt checkout on PayPal within 24 hours when Stripe was unavailable in Albania, and ultimately migrated to POK (rpay). I also built an 18-driver supply network, secured a technical co-founder, and created supplier, cancellation, and support workflows.
Previously, I improved booking flows and customer journeys at Ferryhopper alongside Product, Data, Engineering, and Design teams. My work across Longines, Seajets, Trip.com, and Dentsply Sirona spans e-commerce, payments, fraud and dispute management, digital growth, content operations, and global website delivery.
I'm most energised by turning complex customer and operational needs into practical marketplace products that can launch, learn, and grow.
