Hello 👋🏽
I bring a lean mindset wherever I go, with the right technical and people skills mix.
My background includes 9+ years in product and entrepreneurship. I help bridge the gap between excellent user experience and business profit while sharing recognitions and celebrating the team wins.
What motivates me?
Tough problems of any sort get me up in the morning. In the afternoon, you will find me helping my team or other teams grow. By the evening, you will find me sharing family time and playing with my kiddos.
I also share a sweet-spot for Education, Edtech, B2E and B2B space startups that are ready to scale.
Me, now…
I’m currently Group Product Manager, API and Integrations for Telus Digital.
At the same time, I give back to the community via The SurreyCodes Foundation, a non-profit organization that helps educate new developers in British Columbia

What other say about Me (From LinkedIn)
Toolkit
Product Strategy
I base prioritization and make sure we are working on the right things based on metrics that define success.
All outcomes are tied to one or more business goals.
Technical Expertise
Not afraid to look for that 200ok on Postman.
I’ve set a devops pipeline with test cases and created staging environments in the past. I can speak layering with developers any day, in fact, I enjoy it.
Product North Star
Because there’s no better way to rally troops than to give them a common cause to fight for.
I focus heavily on being an advocate for the problem we are solving and where we are heading.
Remote Ready
I’ve worked in and led product teams of all sorts asynchronously and partially remote.
Basing performance on outcomes and not time spent on the computer.
