Fractional Product Manager For Fintech And Blockchain Startups

I have 10+ years of fintech product management experience from Fortune 500 developing the Chase Sapphire Reserve credit card at Visa, to launching an ecommerce marketplace at YC-backed Flutterwave, to managing a suite of debit card products at Global Payments. I've also worked in cybersecurity at Kriptos and hold an MBA from Georgetown.

I'm excited by the future of finance and looking to take the next step into blockchain, crypto, and Web3 as a Product Manager.

I look forward to connecting soon!
