Senior Operations & Partnerships Leader with experience building and scaling teams, systems, and partnerships in fast-moving tech companies. I’ve worked with global platforms like TikTok (ByteDance) and BIGO Live (JOYY Inc.), where I helped launch and grow business units in competitive markets like MENA.
My approach is simple: solve problems, streamline operations, and empower teams. At BIGO, I expanded the partner network across the region and significantly grew revenue by focusing on high-performing agencies. Later, at TikTok, I led initiatives to scale the creator ecosystem, working closely with partners to improve monetization and engagement.
I’ve built and led teams across different regions, including remote teams, and have experience navigating challenges like market shifts and operational hurdles. Beyond just hitting targets, I focus on sustainable growth—whether that’s improving internal tools, setting up training programs, or refining processes to make teams more efficient.
Now, I’m looking to bring this experience to a new industry—EdTech, SaaS, or E-commerce—where I can help build strong operations and partnerships that drive real impact.
