With over a decade of experience spanning from design to entrepreneurship and now specializing in product management, I've been fortunate to work on real and sometimes unpleasant problems with extreme craftsmanship.

This gave me serendipitous opportunity to work in industries like E-commerce, Fintech, Insurtech and HR tech.
