Bio

I’m a product leader with a strong background in marketing and customer insight, having advised on 200+ projects across individuals, SMBs, startups, and enterprise teams. My work focuses on helping companies clarify their direction by aligning product strategy, customer needs, and business goals using data-informed and human-centered approaches. I support founders and teams in translating ideas into practical next steps—whether refining a product vision, prioritizing opportunities, or navigating growth decisions. My experience spans product discovery, go-to-market planning, and early scaling, with an emphasis on clear communication, thoughtful decision-making, and avoiding unnecessary complexity. As a mentor, I aim to provide perspective, structure, and grounded feedback so teams can move forward with confidence rather than urgency.
