About Me

I'm a product manager and fullstack developer with hands-on experience across both the technical and strategic sides of product development.

Product Manager

I approach Agile/Scrum not as a set of rituals but as a framework for building communication, trust, and motivation. Strong in problem definition, early risk detection, and data-informed decision-making.

Fullstack Developer
