I've always wondered what I can learn and accomplish if I thrust myself into the unknown. If I took risks and left my comfort zone. So my husband and I bought one-way tickets and hit the road with nothing but two suitcases. 

While traveling, I worked as a product consultant for multiple clients: 

• Whitespectre- Barcelona

  • Set product vision and lead road-mapping, goal setting, and product roll-out strategy

  • Define key success metrics and develop analytics implementation plans

  • Negotiate agreements with external partners; develop and prioritize contracts

  • Collaborate with leaders in the marketing and sales teams to define, execute, and support
    the overall go-to-market strategy

  • Partner with internal and external development teams to prioritize product releases

  • Review, analyze, and shadow competitor products
    

• EdTech Startup- San Francisco, CA

  • Develop go-to-market strategy and execution plan

  • Lead user interviews and conduct competitive analysis to identify areas of opportunity
