About

Building things that matter - that's what I'm passionate about.

I'm a software engineer by education and have spent the last four years as a product manager in the fintech space. My experience in fast-paced startup environments has sharpened my problem-solving and stakeholder management skills, empowering me to drive impactful outcomes while defining both the "what" and the "why" of the products I build.

My multidisciplinary background equips me to excel not just in coding but also in understanding the broader impact of technology on business and user experience. My experience in leading cross-functional teams and my commitment to agile and engineering best practices allow me to bring ideas from conception to launch efficiently.

I've been channeling these skills into causecompass.io, an initiative dedicated to bridging the gap between nonprofits and the communities they serve. Through the strategic use of technology and compelling storytelling, we aspire to highlight the unsung heroes and vital initiatives making a real-world impact.
