In my role as a Hybrid Product Manager and Designer, I orchestrate a dynamic blend of strategic product management and creative design responsibilities. My daily tasks encompass crafting compelling user stories, conducting rigorous competitive analyses to inform strategic decisions, and collaborating seamlessly with engineering, marketing, and sales teams.

Additionally, I actively contribute to shaping the product roadmap, prioritizing features based on user impact and business value. Overall, my responsibilities extend to effective stakeholder communication, fostering a collaborative environment, and ensuring that the intersection of product management and design is optimized for innovation and success.
