Über mich
I'm a Chief Product & Technology Officer with an entrepreneurial mindset and many years of experience in project/product leadership in multiple IT and related industries.

I strengthen project/product teams and bring more projects to successful delivery using my relevant experience with managing distributed teams for the last 7 years of leadership roles and more than 11 years in the IT Industry. I adapt to the context of industry and propose the symbiosis of creative thinking, modern technologies, and vast experience for the benefit of a brand. I convert clients’ business needs into technical requirements and provide product vision. I deeply understand SDLC and monetization mechanisms in IT products: Web, Ecommerce, Social, Dating, SaaS, B2B, B2C, Education, Low-code/No-code, Marketplaces, and Gaming.
