What I'm looking for

I'm seeking product leadership roles where I can merge AI and advanced analytics with wireless network planning to deliver scalable, cost-effective solutions; I value collaborative, data-driven teams, clear stakeholder alignment, and opportunities for technical and strategic impact.

I am a tech-driven Product Manager with a Master’s in Computer Science specializing in AI and Data Science. I bridge enterprise data, trend analysis and RF planning to translate advanced analytics into scalable wireless products that meet business goals.

At Rogers I led multi-team delivery across 20+ high-visibility projects, oversaw $25.6M+ in capital planning, and drove CAPEX reductions up to 20% while achieving ~5% OPEX savings through Python and Power BI–driven KPIs. I published research on density visualization, received the Ted Rogers Award for 5G in transit, and seek opportunities to align AI and network innovation with measurable customer and financial outcomes.
