Bio

I have worked extensively with early-stage startups and understand the nuances of scaling products. So, if you are a founder or planning to build something, hit me up.

Expertise

Experience

  • Anzenna.ai

    Lead Product Designer
    •anzenna.ai/

    Anzenna.ai is a B2B agentless SaaS platform for security teams. Worked directly with founders, PM, sales lead and engineers to design an evolving MVP, rapidly adapting the product for customer demos and POCs as requirements changed with each prospect. As the lead designer in a small founding team without a dedicated product manager, I helped define product priorities, scope features, translate customer requirements into workflows, and collaborate with engineers from concept through delivery. I designed both the security team platform and the sales demo experience, helping secure the company's first three enterprise POCs. My designs made it easy for customers to navigate through huge data sets and sift through the noise easily, and helped secure the first three POCs with large enterprises (1000+ employees) and multiple POCs.
