About
Experienced product leader passionate about leveraging technology to drive positive change. Currently contributing to social impact at Tech for Campaigns, where I excel at developing innovative solutions and collaborating with cross-functional teams to achieve organizational goals. I bring a proven track record in agile product management and customer-driven product innovation with expertise in roadmap development, sprint planning, user story mapping, and stakeholder management. My background also includes program and partner management experience, enabling me to manage complex initiatives with multiple workstreams effectively. To prepare for a transition into the climate tech sector, I'm deepening my understanding of climate science and technology through the Climatebase Fellowship. I'm eager to apply my skills and passion to build a sustainable future. (And yes, I believe a good doughnut can fuel great ideas!)
