About

I'm a product-first person with a strong tendency towards executing cross-functionally (Sales/BD, product, operations, fundraising). I built a B2B SaaS company from scratch to over 300+ clients and raised 11M USD. Prior to that, I ran a technology consultancy and media agency serving 6+ concurrent customers, primarily focusing on helping them achieve high organic user growth in a short span of time using community-driven strategies. I'm hyperfocused on understanding customer pain points and converting the knowledge into lean solutions that can be monetized.
