South AfricaWhat I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Product Manager with over 5 years of experience, specializing in creating innovative products that resonate with users and drive significant revenue growth. My journey has taken me from startups to large corporations, where I have successfully acted as an interim Product Manager for various projects.

My notable achievements include the successful launch of the Ampath Pro Plus medical application and a 40% revenue increase for Pepcell through a comprehensive UX redesign. I am passionate about leveraging data-driven insights to enhance user experiences and create products that customers love.
