APM @ Digitap.ai | Ex-VMware | B2B SaaS Fintech | Finding clarity in complex problems

About

Curiosity drives me, clarity grounds me, and execution defines me. I see product management as the craft of asking the right questions, structuring messy problems, and working with teams to turn them into real solutions. I began my career as a Software Engineer at VMware, but I was drawn more to the why behind products than just the how. That curiosity pulled me into product management — first as a Product Intern at Digitap.ai, and now as an Associate Product Manager. At Digitap, I’ve worked on compliance and KYB products in a space where rigor and reliability are critical. I’ve helped shape solutions that simplified enterprise onboarding and automated complex checks, while building the habits that define effective PMs: breaking down ambiguity into clear plans, running disciplined sprints, and ensuring delivery across cross-functional teams. What excites me most is the balance of creativity and discipline in product work — finding clarity in chaos, learning from sharp colleagues, and building products that genuinely move the needle for users and businesses. I approach this journey with humility to learn, clarity to execute, and discipline to keep shipping.
