Summary

I'm a pragmatic and data-driven Senior Product Leader with 10+ years of experience across SaaS B2B, B2B/B2C marketplaces, AI, logistics and platform products. I thrive in dynamic, fast-paced environments where outcomes matter and progress is key. My approach combines strong experience in customer discovery, agile product execution, and a clear grasp of business levers. I've worked hands-on with qualitative research, SQL, Looker, Power BI, and analytics pipelines to inform decisions, validate hypotheses and build product strategy.
