Hey there👋🏾 Nice to meet you too!😊

I started writing cuz I wasn’t going to do dance trends on TikTok😀

Now, I write about actionable tips to break you into product management, my journey, lessons I learned along the way, the strategies that helped me and side projects I work on.

You may have guessed it, I'm a Product Manager at Microsoft. 

Most people start their day with a cup of coffee, but my day doesn't start if it didn't begin at the gym. 

My job as a PM is to identify a problem, ask annoying questions to understand it more and ask some more questions that help bring experiment-able ideas I can test for potential solutions.

It took me 2years to break into product management. But I believe there's a quicker path and that's why I share my story.

3 things to expect

👉🏾 Actionable PM tips 
👉🏾 Inspiring side projects 
👉🏾 Sneak peek into my mind

One of my core beliefs is that "Tech people don't have two heads". You can do whatever you put your mind to do. 

I'm on a journey inspire as many people as possible to step out of the shadows and do more than just research. 

👉🏾Follow me, If you want to follow along in the journey as I discover, build, experiment, launch and share everything I learn.

Cheers
