About
As a professionally trained and certified project manager, I have realized through my hands-on experience that project management (logic) and product management (dreams) go hand in hand. In fact, they are the perfect pair, since blending logic with vision allows you to realize what is truly possible – while also having the skills to turn ideas into action, thoughts into results.
If you can master both of these skills – coming up with the ideas and turning them into reality – you have something special. Something that can serve as a ground-breaking asset to a team. Someone who can not only think outside the box but also devise a plan to make things happen with positive results in a timely way.
Entrepreneurship and ownership are adrenaline rushes. Creation is thrilling. And in a forward-thinking, Agile environment is where I excel. I have the experience and knowledge to take small or large companies to the next level, and I have the ideas to keep products and teams evolving.
