Description

I’m a qualified Product Manager and Leader with more than 15 years of experience in

the tech field and travel industry. I kicked off my career working as a developer for

almost 10 years, gaining a solid technical fluency and a clear understanding of the

product development life cycle.

Beyond my technological background, I have developed significant expertise in the

travel industry, collaborating with international suppliers and clients and leading a

team of over 40 people.

I’m able to bring a blend of technical expertise, user-focused design, and strategic

product management. I enjoy collaborating with teams to achieve shared goals with

curiosity and adaptability.

I’m now looking for new ventures and challenges, exploring opportunities as a Product

Leader or as an individual contributor, helping you build your next idea. I’m at ease

with start-ups and dynamic environments that juggle with innovation and technology.
