Bio
Currently building Bracket, a platform that gives Gen Z & Millennials the tools to build real-world financial skills that stick.
With over 5 years as a product manager & data analyst, I specialize in strategic leadership and user-focused solutions. I hold an MSc. in Engineering Management from Johns Hopkins University and a solid background in Electrical Engineering from Morgan State University. My toolkit includes Scrum, Kanban, and JIRA, along with design tools like Figma and Canva. I'm adept in data analysis using Oracle APEX, Airtable, PowerBI, ArcGIS, and Excel, and skilled in web development with React, Wix, and WordPress. I've left my mark at VMware by validating Workspace ONE UEM features, orchestrating successful website launches at Johns Hopkins University, and bringing engaging webinars and dashboards to life at Oracle. My entrepreneurial spirit shines through co-founding startups like Abbey and Scribe, earning recognition and fellowships.
