I am an experienced Product Owner with a background in 3D Design, CAD and Mechanical engineering. I have extensive experience across multiple market sectors, most recently developing solutions that help designers create and make solutions.
I am pragmatic and a problem solver!
As a Product Owner, I begin the process by understanding the need before developing a solution. This research forms the basis of the collaboration that drives the success of each project
My goal is always to develop solutions that simplify problems and as a designer myself I am focused on helping designers excel. I have presented my solutions at events such as Adobe max and Siggraph.
Through my different professional experiences, I acquired a background in multiple fields like Fashion, Architecture, Manufacturing and interacts with many different professionals as Designers, Engineers or Marketers. I particularly enjoy partnering with different stakeholders to make the project progress with multiple visions to meet the requirements of the clients.
