What I'm looking for

I seek a role in a collaborative environment where I can leverage my Agile expertise to drive impactful product development and foster team growth.

I am a passionate Product Owner with over six years of experience in leading web and mobile projects in Agile environments. My expertise lies in collaborating closely with remote, cross-functional teams to turn business goals into clear product priorities, delivering real value on time and with purpose.

My background in operations, process improvement, and team leadership enables me to thrive in dynamic environments where clarity, collaboration, and impact matter. As a Certified Scrum Product Owner (CSPO) and Certified Scrum Master (CSM), I bring structure, energy, and a people-first approach to every project I undertake.
