Interim VP Product & Advisor
I'm an interim product leader for scaling startups. Over the last 10 years, I've built and led product & growth teams across Silicon Valley and Singapore/Southeast Asia. I've worked at companies of various sizes, from public companies (Dropbox) to growth-stage startups (Xendit, CreativeLive). Throughout this journey, I've led a 70-person product org, scaled product-led growth businesses, shipped features that drove millions in revenue, and launched products & teams from scratch. I also mentor and scout startups at First Round Capital, 500 Startups, Antler, Saison Capital and Iterative.
