What I'm looking for

I seek a senior product role in crypto/fintech where I can drive tokenization and PMS product strategy, lead cross-functional teams, and deliver measurable client value in an agile, collaborative environment.

I am a results-driven product manager with over eight years' experience building software products across digital assets, portfolio management systems, and financial services. I combine hands-on product ownership with a strong background in finance and business process management to deliver measurable value.

I have led cross-functional, distributed teams using Agile and Scrum to deliver complex features on schedule, including tokenization use cases and DeFi integrations. I act as the bridge between business, technical teams, and clients to translate needs into actionable roadmaps and clear specifications.

My achievements include driving product strategy and execution for crypto portfolio management SaaS, implementing sprint processes, producing technical specifications, and supporting pre-sales and client implementations. I have deep exposure to the crypto asset ecosystem—exchanges, custodians, smart wallets, DeFi projects—and to institutional workflows.

I am client-focused, pragmatic, and communicative, with experience training users, running implementations for funds and family offices, and founding a volunteer education initiative. I prioritize clear roadmaps, stakeholder alignment, and shipping high-impact features in fast-paced environments.
