About Me

I’m a seasoned Business Consultant transitioning to Product Management, with expertise in enterprise software solutions and CRM implementations. My background combines technical knowledge with business acumen, allowing me to bridge the gap between user needs and technical requirements.

My Carnegie Mellon M.Sc. in Software Management and Purdue BS in Computer Information Technology provide the academic foundation, while my experience creating tech content and building communities demonstrates my communication skills and ability to inspire product vision. Ready to leverage this unique blend of skills to drive product success.
