I'm a Product Manager leader, helping customers design, build and evolve their IP Communications Networks and adopt next generation cloud platforms.

Currently I'm Director of Product Management at Twilio, leading our Voice & Network Connectivity teams at Twilio, I've defined and built our SIP Voice Products, created our Private Connectivity Product and improved our HTTP callback (webhooks) pipeline and have built an amazing team of Product Managers.

I have a reputation of "Getting things done!" by (1) effectively working with cross-functional teams, (2) having a strong understanding on the performance of my Business/Products, and (3) being an effective team builder that thrives to ensure every individual in my team is able to excel at what they do.

I'm a multicultural leader that strongly believes in forming diverse teams. I have the perfect balance between Technology & Business, with a Masters in Science in EE from Stanford University, and an Executive Masters in Business from London Business School.
