I’ve built my career around one principle: growth happens when experimentation, data, and user insight drive every decision. With 6+ years across product management, fintech, SaaS, and e-commerce, I design and scale products and digital experiences through rigorous experimentation, data-informed strategy, and user-centred design. I currently lead the CRO and experimentation function at Rainy City, working with e-commerce and DTC brands to turn behavioural insight into measurable outcomes across acquisition, activation, conversion, and monetisation. Previously, I led product and experimentation initiatives at YouVerify and GetEquity, launching unified identity APIs, no-code compliance tools, structured debt products, and secondary marketplaces, supporting tens of thousands of users and driving meaningful revenue growth. Beyond products, I invest in growing people and ecosystems. I’ve mentored 60+ professionals, contributed to executive training, and actively support global experimentation communities. If you’re looking to embed evidence-based decision-making or explore how experimentation-led growth can accelerate impact, I’d love to connect.
