Beyond Building Products
Life isn't all about AI and product management! Here's what keeps me energized, inspired, and (mostly) sane outside of work. 😄
Running
Running enthusiast
Training for my next long-distance run! Former Half-Marathon finisher, currently recovering from foot injury. Running is my favorite way to clear my mind and stay fit.
Reading
Book hoarder

Singing
Sings the wrong lyrics but right notes
Singing is my go-to stress reliever. I occasionally post on social media (if I am happy enough to share my recordings)
Freestyle Jump Rope
Learning new tricks
Who says jump rope is just for kids? I love the challenge of learning new tricks and combos. It's like dancing meets cardio meets coordination challenge. Plus, it's a great conversation starter: 'You do what for fun?!' 🤸♂️
Gaming
Noobie gamer

Fun Fact! 🎉
I believe the best ideas come when you're not staring at a screen. Whether I'm pounding the pavement, flipping through pages, or jumping rope, that's when the magic happens! Want to chat about product strategy? Let's go for a run! 🏃♂️💡
