What I'm looking for

I seek a senior product role where I can lead cross-functional teams in an Agile environment, drive roadmap execution, and deliver customer-focused, metric-driven products while fostering transparency and continuous learning.

I am a results-driven Product Manager with a strong technical foundation and extensive experience leading remote, multidisciplinary teams in Agile environments such as Scrum, Kanban, and SAFe.

I specialize in backlog prioritization, stakeholder management, and defining business value through clear user stories and acceptance criteria, partnering closely with engineering during discovery to shape solutions.

My background includes product leadership at SMA Technologies and Fiserv, where I drove roadmap strategy, performance analytics, and feature adoption, and earlier hands-on technical roles as a DBA and data engineer across Oracle, MySQL and SQL Server platforms.

I am passionate about continuous learning, transparency, and building cohesive teams that deliver customer-focused products which meet business objectives and exceed KPIs.
