About

I'm a product manager focused on growth. I've worked in B2B SaaS and consumer apps, always on the same thing: how do you get people in, and why do they stay.

I have a Dual Master's in Management & Data Science from IE Business School — top 10 globally. I do SQL, I do user research (300+ interviews), I build with AI tools.

Outside work I train Brazilian jiu-jitsu 8 times a week. It teaches you the same thing as good product work: you can't fake progress, and consistency beats intensity.
