I am a passionate and results-driven Product Manager with over 7 years of experience leading cross-functional teams to deliver impactful B2B and B2C SaaS products across FinTech, Banking, and IT industries. My work spans large enterprises and fast-paced startups, with a consistent focus on customer-centric innovation, scalable product architecture, and data-driven decision-making.

Currently, I serve as a Senior Product Manager at Merrill Lynch Canada, where I manage two critical products - a Financial Planning System and an AI-integrated Social Media Banking platform. I have successfully led initiatives that resulted in significant increases in ARR, user engagement, and customer acquisition by embedding AI/ML models, enhancing user journeys, and executing effective GTM strategies. My efforts contributed to a $5M+ boost in annual recurring revenue and a 30% increase in active usage.

Before this, I held roles at J.P. Morgan Chase and EHP Funds. At J.P. Morgan Chase, I led the revamp of the Loan Management System and drove new features within the Retail Banking App, achieving a 25% lift in digital engagement and enhancing transaction speed by over 40%. At EHP Funds, I built a secure in-house CRM platform and modernized the company’s website, significantly improving conversion and engagement metrics.

My core strengths lie in developing and executing product strategy, leveraging customer research and behavioral analytics, and collaborating closely with Engineering, Data Science, Marketing, and Compliance teams. I am well-versed in Agile methodologies (Scrum, Kanban, SAFe) and experienced in product lifecycle stages from MVP to MLP. I frequently utilize tools like JIRA, Figma, Mixpanel, Amplitude, and Tableau to manage roadmaps, track KPIs/OKRs, and validate hypotheses through A/B testing and feedback loops.

In addition to technical expertise, I bring a strong sense of ownership, curiosity, and a collaborative mindset. I believe in building products that not only solve real customer problems but also align tightly with business outcomes. I take pride in transforming abstract ideas into tangible solutions and scaling them through iterative learning and stakeholder alignment.

With a Master’s degree in Applied Computing (Computer Science), I combine technical depth with strategic thinking to deliver high-impact solutions. I am now seeking opportunities where I can continue to grow as a product leader, contribute to mission-driven teams, and shape innovative products that create lasting value.
