Program Manager

My career brought me across various countries in Europe, North America, and Africa. My professional journey spans a broad array of sectors, including telecommunications, banking, insurance, and e-Commerce, before discovering a love for Design Thinking. 

Most of my career was spent in the corporate world, improving and innovating products and processes. I was the link between the business and technology. I realized that it is the people factor that decides if project has delivered value to the end customer. This is why I got excited by the Design Thinking.
