What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a product role where I can own roadmaps, collaborate closely with cross-functional teams, and turn player and market insights into shippable features—while building products that consistently deliver measurable impact.

I’m a results-driven Product Manager focused on building and executing product roadmaps in the gaming industry. I align delivery milestones with long-term strategic goals and keep my work grounded in measurable outcomes.

In my current role at Neonucleus, I define and own the product roadmap and lead cross-functional collaboration across design, engineering, and QA. I prioritize player feedback, market research, and stakeholder input to drive informed product decisions and support on-time feature delivery.

Before product management, I developed strong execution and communication fundamentals through architectural work and client-facing delivery. As an Assistant Architectural Designer, I supported efficient AutoCAD workflows, assisted with computer-aided design tasks and rendering drafts, and maintained an empathetic, solution-oriented approach with stakeholders.

I also bring a language and content lens from years of freelance translation, editing, copywriting, and teaching. I’ve used machine translation tools to streamline translation workflows and applied localization and globalization principles—skills I use to improve clarity, alignment, and relevance across teams and audiences.
