I help professionals and fresh graduates to learn digital skills, start new careers, and advance in their roles.
I started my journey in the IT industry and software product management 15 years ago by being an IT and management consultant and transitioning to a full-on startup Product Manager and Product Director. I've built products from scratch for different industries – commodities trading, logistics, natural language processing, and e-learning – and also for different markets, from Europe to Asia.
I have an MBA from the National University of Singapore and a Master's in Applied Informatics.
Before joining online education, I shared my expertise and knowledge with only a few people - my co-workers and mentees. With Udemy, I'd like to scale and productize my experience to help many more people. I place great value on keeping my lessons not only informative but also interesting and engaging. For this reason, I make sure to include enough resources, examples, and exercises for students to download and work with.
I look forward to having you in my classes!
