You Are THE Product. ITERATE~!

From leading global design transformation at IBM to building an innovative SaaP ecosystem at the EdTech startup Preface, my journey has been about daring to redefine my role and impact. At IBM, I mastered solving complex challenges at scale, but transitioning to a startup pushed me to expand beyond design into product strategy, business growth, and leadership. In this keynote, I’ll share how embracing the unknown and blending design craft with strategic thinking empowered me to create bridges between technology, education, and impact. Join me to explore how daring to step outside your comfort zone can unlock your potential.
