Summary

As a Product Manager with a strong foundation in Business Intelligence, Finance, and Machine Learning, I thrive at the intersection of data and strategy. My experience spans across industries, from FinTech to Digital Health, where I have successfully led data-driven product development and market expansion initiatives. With international experience across Germany, the Netherlands, and Romania, I bring a global perspective to problem-solving and product innovation. Also, continuously curious about disruptive technologies, I explore AI applications in FinTech, digital transformation, and user experience.
