What I'm looking for

I seek a senior product management role where I can lead cross-functional teams to commercialize technical innovations, drive revenue growth, and optimize sustainable product lifecycles.

I am a seasoned product leader with over a decade of experience driving R&D, product innovation, and technology commercialization across global organizations and startups. I have a background in applied chemistry and a proven track record of launching high-impact products, negotiating strategic contracts, and implementing data-driven processes that reduce waste and accelerate speed-to-market.

In recent roles I led the launch of a freeze-thaw indicator reaching over 180 million consumer units and generating over $1 million in new revenue, and implemented lifecycle analysis that cut material waste by $500K annually. I served as Director of Products overseeing global product development and R&D operations, supported $4 million in new annual revenue through Agile workflows, and consistently bridge technical development with business outcomes.
