About Me
With over a decade of experience in building technology products, I’ve generated multi-million dollar value through innovative solutions. My big, hairy, audacious goal is to build a product that generates a billion dollar in value. While my most successful products have been in the financial technology sector, I consider myself a versatile, domain-agnostic product manager.
According to career assessment tests, I am an architect and analytical thinker who thrives on intellectual challenges and practical work. I also agree that this is my superpower as a product manager, which enables me to thoroughly dissect problems and then enjoy building solutions to address them.
Outside of my professional life, I spend most of my time striking off items on my bucket list. Made up of 100 items to complete by 2040, I think of it as my life’s roadmap 🙂
