About Me

Passionate about building products that make a difference


I'm Stef, a product manager with a love for solving problems and creating experiences that users genuinely enjoy.

With years of experience in tech, I've learned that the best products come from truly understanding people. Through this blog and newsletter, I share everything I've learned—the wins, the failures, and the lessons in between.

My goal is to help other PMs navigate their journey with practical, no-fluff advice.

When I'm not thinking about product strategy, you'll find me exploring new coffee shops, watching cat videos online, or mentoring aspiring PMs.
