About Me

I am a Product Management and Product Marketing professional with 8 years of experience in a diverse set of industries including aviation, consumer goods, and energy. Across these roles, I bridge business acumen, technical know-how, product sense, and customer curiosity to drive impactful business growth.

As a second year STEM MBA candidate at Simon Business School, I am excited to continue leading the development of data-driven, AI-enabled products that deliver meaningful costumer experiences and drive business value in a full-time role after my graduation in May 2026.
