Founder

Brastorne

As a Product Manager Consultant, I led the end-to-end development of Brastorne's mAgri web app, a transformative agricultural platform for Africa. I led a high-performing development team, fostering a culture of collaboration and innovation that optimized resource allocation for maximum impact.
These efforts successfully led to the launch of mAgri MVP in Botswana. 
 My strategic foresight also led to the creation of a scalable roadmap, guiding the product's expansion across other African markets [Zambia, Cameroon, Guinea, and DRC].
