/ about

Translating AI capabilities into enterprise products.

As an AI Product Manager, I lead strategy and delivery for enterprise AI programs across HRTech, Talent Management, and Learning — shaping roadmaps for Generative AI, intelligent automation, and Agentic workflows that progress from discovery and validation to secure, production-grade deployment at scale.

My approach blends Project Management and Business Analyst discipline with deep AI product ownership: defining use cases, requirements, and success metrics; evaluating model fit, data readiness, and risk; and aligning engineering, data science, and business leaders to ship trustworthy AI solutions that improve hiring, talent development, and workforce learning.
