How I work

From ambiguity to an adopted product.

I stay with the problem across strategy, design, delivery, and adoption—especially when the path is not obvious.

01Discovery

Talk to customers, inspect the system, and separate symptoms from the underlying constraint.

02Direction

Frame the opportunity, define the viable product direction, and align business, user, and technical realities.

03MVP

Reduce the idea to the smallest coherent product that can create learning and real customer value.

04Launch

Coordinate the people and details needed to move from a decision to a dependable release.

05Adoption

Stay close after release, remove onboarding friction, and turn signals into the next product decision.

Product profile

Strategy, UX judgment, and the ability to build.

I’ve spent more than five years creating B2B2C SaaS products at OpenWeb across product management, product design leadership, and hands-on execution.

I work between customers, business stakeholders, designers, engineers, data teams, and implementation details. When normal delivery is too slow or resources are missing, I can prototype and build directly.
