Hello there! My tech journey took off in project and product management roles at Unisys and a United Nations agency, which laid a firm foundation for my career and kicked off my product management career. From there, I plunged into the invigorating world of startups, absorbing invaluable lessons and embracing both the triumphs and trials that came my way.
An important chapter in my journey was my participation in the global Antler startup accelerator. There, I honed my abilities to pitch to investors and worked diligently on idea validation. This experience offered a unique perspective and further enriched my startup understanding.
This exciting journey ultimately led me to the dynamic environment of Wix.com. Here, I had the fantastic opportunity to optimize user journeys across a variety of business verticals, build innovative solutions to meet business goals, work on event management B2B product, assist with products conversion rates, and solve problems for the complex landscape of content management products. It was an electrifying ride that I loved every minute of!

I'm excited to use my skills and experiences to shape the future of the industry and bring innovative solutions to life.
Alongside my tech roles, I've also developed a knack for career planning skills. Also, investing into B2B startups using my experiences and insights to guide others on their professional paths. So, whether you're navigating the thrilling waves of the tech industry or seeking advice on your career journey, I'm here to help! Let's embrace the adventure together.
