What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead product vision and portfolio outcomes for regulated enterprise platforms—pairing AI/data strategy with strong governance. I want cross-functional partnership and measurable impact on risk, compliance, and operations through prioritized roadmaps.

I’m a Vice President product leader with 20 years of experience building and scaling enterprise platforms across BFSI and FinTech, with deep expertise in AI- and data-driven products in regulated environments. I own product vision, strategic prioritization, and outcomes at global scale, translating strategy into sequenced, measurable bets.

At Standard Chartered Bank, I lead enterprise-wide product strategy and portfolio decisions for global servicing and decisioning platforms spanning 40+ markets. I owned a $5M+ modernization program that improved servicing turnaround by 25%, operational efficiency by 20%, and platform reliability—while setting enterprise AI and automation strategy to reduce manual effort by 30% and strengthen SLA adherence, compliance accuracy, and risk posture.

Previously at Norton LifeLock (Gen Digital), I drove global data, AI, and analytics platforms supporting 50M+ customers, including AI/ML personalization and GenAI-enabled automation that eliminated 60% of manual reporting (saving 20,000+ hours annually and $1M+ in operating cost). I’ve also led compliance, risk, and analytics platform modernization at PayPal across 200+ markets, reducing audit findings by 40% and improving detection accuracy while cutting false positives by 25%—always with privacy-by-design governance.
