About
Hi! I’m a Top 5% MentorCruise mentor, ICF coach-in-training, and Product & AI leader working on AI products, automation, product strategy and team AI adoption.
I help professionals grow in three connected areas:
- Building stronger careers in product, program management, strategy, and leadership
- Understanding how to use AI practically in real business and product environments
- Making clearer decisions about career direction, confidence, growth, and what comes next
If you’re looking for advice, frameworks, and real-world guidance on career growth, product management, program management, Amazon-style ways of working, stakeholder management, leadership, or business challenges, I can mentor you. If you’re looking for a more reflective, question-led coaching space to explore your goals, career direction, confidence, decision-making, or work-life clarity, I also offer a dedicated coaching plan.
Over the last 2 years, I’ve helped 20+ mentees and coaching clients navigate career changes, grow into leadership, perform better at work, and make clearer decisions.
With 13+ years across Amazon, startups, and high-growth industries, I’ve built programs, scaled marketplaces, and led global teams. At Amazon, I drove AI products, hired and built a team of 8 people from scratch, conducted 120+ interviews, launched 20+ projects across Europe to reduce customer returns and improve brand protection, tripled SaaS revenue in 2 years while working with enterprise Fortune 500 brands, and drove multi-million-dollar cost savings through scalable automation.
I’ve supported professionals across different stages of their journey, including:
- A business development manager moving into program and product leadership: we worked on stakeholder influence, ownership mindset, and execution tools
- A mid-career professional aiming to grow into leadership and increase visibility: we reworked their communication strategy, stakeholder engagement, and leadership presence
- A new hire adapting to a new company culture: we focused on team dynamics, manager relationships, communication, and building early trust
- Business owner wanting to explore AI opportunities across operations, marketing, customer experience and decision-making, and prioritization
- A mentee seeking career growth: we mapped their goals and created a focused plan that led to a promotion in just 9 months
Some problems we could work on:
- Career coaching for a transition, promotion, or next role
- Leadership coaching to build confidence, visibility, and influence
- Business coaching for strategic thinking, execution, and decision-making
- Product management or program management mentoring
- Amazon interview preparation, career guidance, or ways-of-working insights
Whether you’re navigating change, trying to grow into leadership, exploring product or program management, preparing for a bigger role, or looking for a coach to help you think more clearly, let's discuss
