About
With a background in software and embedded systems engineering, I am excited to apply my skills to the product manager role.
My extensive experience in product development includes the creation of the award-winning
Practanizer app, which I took from concept to a fully functional application. I am the founder and lead producer of J-Cuts
Video Productions, which I have started over 6 years ago in high school. I am also an avid pianist and tennis player.
