About

Professional summary

I am a Principal Product Manager with over 10 years of experience building B2B, B2C, SaaS, platform, and partner ecosystem products for global organizations including IKEA, Storyblok, Magazine Luiza, RD Group, and Hurb.

I specialize in product strategy, platform products, APIs, developer experience, partner ecosystems, AI-enabled products, digital commerce, and product-led growth. I lead discovery, prioritization, roadmap development, outcome definition, and stakeholder alignment from concept through scalable delivery.

I use data, customer research, experimentation, and product analytics to improve activation, retention, adoption, monetization, and customer satisfaction. My work has delivered measurable gains in partner adoption, activation funnels, API catalog CSAT, NPS, and ticket sales.

I am experienced in leading and mentoring product managers and product owners, coaching teams on strategy, discovery, KPIs, outcome-oriented planning, and product management frameworks. I work closely with engineering, design, QA, executive stakeholders, and external partners.

I am particularly interested in platform strategy, self-service partner onboarding, integrations, AI workflows, LLM-based experiences, and developer-facing products. I bring experience across European and US time zones and global cross-functional environments.
