Product Manager
Trained as an architect. Thinks in systems. Ships products people actually use.
About Me
I'm a Product Manager with a background in architecture. That combination means I think in systems, care about how things feel to move through, and never separate the experience from the outcome.
For six years I worked on products used by millions of people every day. At Balad Maps, a navigation platform with Google Maps-scale usage, I led user research and redesigned how the app handles routing decisions. At SnappBox, the logistics arm of Snapp Group, I owned the core booking experience and shipped features that measurably moved adoption, conversion, and revenue.
I'm now in Vancouver, looking for PM roles where there's a real problem, a team that cares about getting it right, and room to do the kind of work that shows up in the numbers.
My Work

Doubling Feature Adoption by Solving for Discoverability

+4% ETA accuracy
Case Study: From Reactive to Proactive Navigation
How transforming a broken alternative route feature into an intelligent co-pilot led to a proactive routing engine and a 4% gain in ETA prediction accuracy.
