Throughout my career in the area of Product, I've honed my ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams, gather and interpret user feedback, and develop roadmaps that prioritize both short-term deliverables and long-term visions. My expertise in specific software/tools such as JIRA, Confluence, Trello and many others including my adaptability to ever-changing market landscapes have allowed me to deliver results consistently, irrespective of the project's scope or complexity and also to mitigate product risks. With a solid foundation in IT studies and hands-on experience as a developer since 2016, I possess an in-depth mastery of digital technologies. My expertise particularly shines in the realms of web and gaming technologies, frameworks, and the application of agile project management methodologies. This unique blend of academic and practical knowledge positions me at the forefront of the digital landscape.
