About me
NOW I COMBINE THESE SKILLS IN PRODUCT:
I BUILD MVPs, TEST HYPOTHESES, AND LAUNCH WORKING SOLUTIONS FAST.
MY GOAL IS TO SHORTEN THE DISTANCE BETWEEN IDEA AND IMPACT,
IMPROVING PRODUCT METRICS AND USER EXPERIENCE.
MY PATH INTO PRODUCT CAME THROUGH EDUCATION, DESIGN, AND TECHNOLOGY.
WORKING WITH TEAMS AND SYSTEMS TAUGHT ME STRUCTURE AND ACCOUNTABILITY.
DESIGN AND UX — TO SEE THE USER, SPOT FRICTION, AND REMOVE NOISE.
TECHNOLOGY — TO PROTOTYPE FAST, CONNECT SYSTEMS, AND AUTOMATE.
