My journey has been marked by a commitment to driving technology and product visions, mentoring teams, and maximizing productivity while fostering cohesive environments.

In my most recent role as Engineering Manager at Google, I led the development of the YouTube Shopping Platform, driving strategy and aligning team vision with business goals. I successfully launched the YouTube Live shopping experience globally and built a high-performing team from scratch, focusing on continuous improvement and agile methodologies. My previous experience as Chief Technology Officer at Esoko involved driving the overall technology strategy and launching innovative products, significantly reducing time-to-market and enhancing user engagement across diverse markets.
