What I'm looking for

I seek a product leadership role where I can drive AI/ML product strategy in a collaborative, data-driven environment, mentor teams, and deliver secure, user-centered enterprise solutions.

I am a Senior Product Manager with 16+ years of industry experience building B2B SaaS and GenAI products, skilled at defining strategy, driving execution, and translating technical complexity into clear customer value. I have led AI and ML initiatives, delivering conversational AI, LLM-powered features, and Account Intelligence that improve seller efficiency and surface actionable insights.

I excel at aligning cross-functional teams, mentoring product managers, and implementing Agile practices to accelerate delivery and maximize user impact. My background in software engineering (Java, SQL) and hands-on work with data science and system architecture enables me to turn complex models into intuitive, explainable user experiences while preserving data security and compliance.
