I am an advent lover of tech and have chosen it as a passion. I come from a technical and more social scientific background but have combined the too by growing my love for Software Development. I have beeb fortunate to have great experiences and most recently truly dig deeper into the SDLC and further lead a larger team across the world. 

Generally, I am a very open and communicative person. I adapt quite quick and enjoy a macro-management style while maintaining a very tight alignment with various internal and external stakeholders. 

I am currently looking for a challenge and very innovative mindset to place me future career. 

I have had a diverse exposure to various industries yet each of them have had a linearity covering the following skills: 

• Stakeholder/Client relations
• Product market research and development 
• Market growth strategies 
• Technical and product exposure. 

I have worked as and focused in tech most recently growing into a Lead SDLC PM. Before that I was a Customer Success and later Growth strategist for an EdTech company. Before all that I was a Business Development Associate for an AI company based in Australia and a Program Manager for UK non-profit organisation.  

I have a bachelor degree covering International Relations, Economics, and African Studies (focused on African Political Economy)
