What I'm looking for

I’m looking to work closely with founders in high-velocity environments—owning operating cadence, cross-functional programmes, and decision systems—while supporting product and go-to-market that drives measurable impact and scalable growth.

I’m a builder-operator working in Founder’s Office and Chief of Staff work with founders in high-velocity startups. I currently lead strategic and operational initiatives at Kheyti, partnering with leadership on decision systems, government programmes, and cross-functional execution.

I’ve designed and implemented a nationwide institutional validation programme across 10+ government agencies and built MIS/reporting systems that improved decision quality and speed. Earlier, at Uolo, I built operating cadence and alignment systems, launched 3 products to commercialisation, and ran 15+ pilot projects—using CAC/LTV/ARR retention metrics to guide growth levers; before that, as a Product Manager at Tekie, I supported a $1.5M raise and delivered 30+ releases on schedule while improving onboarding and ARR retention.
