I didn’t get into product management to write feature tickets; I got into it because I love solving problems that matter. Over the last 6+ years, I’ve helped companies like Airbnb and Walmart unlock $45M+ in revenue impact, scale AI/ML products, and transform customer experiences. At Airbnb, I led initiatives that cut host cancellations by 18% and boosted repeat bookings by 22%, a $12M annual uplift. At Walmart, I built scalable payment solutions that improved checkout conversions by 9% and drove $23.7M in GMV. And as a startup co-founder, I built 3 MVPs in 12 months, signed $1.2M in B2B contracts, and scaled to 150K+ users before a successful acquisition. What drives me? Turning 0→1 ideas into products that scale. Using data and AI/ML to solve real customer problems. Creating growth stories that excite both startups and Fortune 500s. If you’re building something ambitious or need someone who thrives where strategy, product, and growth meet, let’s connect.

I can write code!!!

Not beautifully. Not like the engineers I've worked alongside who see elegance in a well-structured system.

But enough to know early on that I could have gone that path.
I didn't. And for a long time, I struggled to explain why.

The honest answer?
I kept caring about the wrong things.
In every project, every sprint, every shipped feature, I couldn't stop asking, "Do people actually love this?" Not "Does it work?" Not "Did we ship on time?" But do people feel something when they use it? Does it make a hard thing easier? 

Does it fit into someone's life as if it were always supposed to be there?
Engineers build things that work.
I wanted to build things that matter.

That gap between functional and beloved is where I live. It's not always glamorous. It's sitting with ambiguity when everyone wants a clear answer. It's killing a feature you spent weeks on because the data tells you it's not serving anyone. It's fighting for the user in rooms where the user isn't present.

It's also the most human job in tech.
Because at its core, product management is just this: deeply understanding people, and then fighting for them.

I chose PM not because I couldn't code.
I chose it because I couldn't stop caring about the person on the other side of the screen.

Still can't.

Women’s Day today.

And I’ll be honest I almost wrote the usual thing.

“Celebrating the incredible women who inspire me every day…”

Then I stopped. Because the women in my life don’t need a paragraph from me on March 8th. They needed me to listen better in November. To not talk over them in that meeting in January. To not assume the “admin work” would sort itself out (it didn’t someone did it, and it wasn’t me).

Women’s Day is a little bit like New Year’s. Lots of intentions. Nice posts. Then February happens.
So instead of celebrating today, I’m going to try something uncomfortable carry the actual inconvenience of allyship into a Tuesday in October when there’s no LinkedIn post to show for it.

To every woman who’s had to fight for a seat, fight to be heard, fight to not have their ideas credited to someone else in the same meeting I see it. I’ve probably been part of it without knowing.

Still learning.

Happy Women’s Day. And the other 364 too.
