What I'm looking for

I seek leadership roles building AI-first fintech or B2B SaaS products at early-stage ventures or fast-growing teams, with ownership of product strategy, technical roadmaps, and GTM to drive measurable growth and scale.

I am a founder and product leader with 14+ years building AI-native and fintech products across Asia and Europe, taking early-stage ventures from 0 to traction. I specialize in product strategy, AI tooling, business model development, and GTM execution.

Most recently I founded Relei, delivering an LLM-powered content automation MVP in six weeks and securing nine demo requests within two months, and previously co-founded and served as CPO at MoreTo, leading a platform rebuild that increased usage and conversion by 95% before exit. I combine hands-on prototyping with leadership in technical hiring and cross-functional engineering collaboration.

I teach and mentor startups and designers, hold a master's in interaction design, and maintain certifications in generative AI, product analytics, and strategy. I look for roles where I can lead AI product strategy, build early-stage ventures, and drive measurable commercial growth.
