About

Versatile and results-driven professional with a diverse background in project coordination, client service, and site management. My hands-on experience as a site manager has equipped me with practical skills in planning, team supervision, conflict resolution, and project delivery under tight deadlines — key competencies transferable to broader project management roles.

In addition, I possess a budding interest and growing skill set in product design, particularly in user experience (UX) and interface design, having completed relevant online courses and engaged in self-driven projects. While I do not yet hold formal product management certification, my exposure to both physical project execution and digital product design positions me well for roles that blend creative problem-solving with structured project oversight.

I am eager to advance into project management and product design roles where I can apply my practical leadership experience, attention to detail, and a customer-focused mindset to drive successful outcomes.
