About Me

During my early career, the ambition was to build innovative and creative products and be part of the building blocks of a product. That ambition grew to be the visionary and the strategic brain fueling the product and its evolution, empowering the business and customer. In my current role, my focus is defining the vision of the Verizon App and what it could become in the next 3-5 years. I lead a team of product managers focusing on utilizing competitive analysis, user research, data trends, and emerging technologies. To define an ambiguous product vision, I help and lead the team into breaking down the vision and strategy into an executable product feature roadmap and the potential impact for our users and business
