What I'm looking for

I seek product roles where I can apply data-driven strategy, own KPIs, run experiments, and collaborate cross-functionally to improve user activation and retention.

I am an MBA-trained product professional with hands-on experience in end-to-end product lifecycle, user journey optimization, and data-driven decision making. I have reduced user drop-off, standardized onboarding processes, and improved operational adoption through cross-functional collaboration and KPI ownership.

I bring analytics and technical fluency—Python, SQL, R, Power BI, and Tableau—combined with product skills like user research, wireframing, A/B testing, and outcome-based prioritization. I thrive in roles that require systems thinking, experiment-driven iteration, and measurable impact on activation and retention.
