About Candidate

I’ve always loved solving problems, which is why I am a Product Manager and I’ve been in the industry for seven years. In my career, I have oversaw many complex platforms and countless stakeholder relationships that have allowed me to lead cross-functional teams to develop solutions that have become multi million dollar initiatives. I am interested in meeting an organisation’s internal and external customer demands while maximizing profits and operational efficiency. I apply data-driven and Agile Development to test a business problem and provide solutions which have enabled me to double user engagement and cut development costs by 20% in previous roles. My professional objective as a Product Manager is to become a key player in building disruptive products that solve real business problems.
