Media Coverage
I'm an entrepreneur at heart and early in my career, i had the opportunity to be part of a startup that I co-owned. As a result I was featured in Vancouver Sun and The Province.
This opportunity helped me learn about business and risk management. When you work in a small company that is striving to grow and become self-sufficient or big, you get to learn a lot.
In a small business, you take a lot of responsibility, you get to do a lot of stuff, on your own and you get to see a complete package and learn things from ground reality to bottom-up. The experience made me realize that the overall growth and learning that you get at an aggressive startup is priceless.
Connecting Teams
Working with teams in a variety of disciplines I have been able to recognize and develop processes and systems to create innovative solutions for abstract problems. My product philosophy situates the user at the center of the process. I bring a high level of conceptual development in my work and study the deeper underpinnings that drive and shape user engagement.
Things i love to do
Design Thinking
I thrive on understanding users, challenge assumptions and redefine problems to identify alternative strategies and solutions.
Problem Solving
I love solving problems but defining the problem, finding the root, evaluating alternatives/solutions and developing an action plan strategy.
Innovation
I belive the key to driving innovation and growth is not to become complacent after a success. Innovation must occur continually.
