Bio

VP blockchain product manager at JP Morgan Onyx Coin Systems (EMEA) focused on token solution development. Former Blockchain and Digital Asset Product Lead (Senior Digital Product Manager) at Scotiabank focused in the emerging technologies space including Blockchain, Distributed Ledger Technologies, and Digital Currency. Formerly, a London-based management consultant blockchain for banking specialist at NTT DATA. Professional background in business analysis, business and technology strategy, and project/product management including Professional Scrum Master (PSM1) certification. Key areas of expertise include Asset Tokenization, Digital Currencies and Crypto Finance, CBDC, Digital Banking, DLT/Blockchain applications in ESG and Sustainable Finance, Payment Modernisation, and Digital Identity/Self-Sovereign Digital Identity, and interoperability solutions. I am building further expertise in emerging digital trends including NFTs, Metaverse, and Web3. I have specific abilities to deliver technical business analysis, strategy, market research (quantitative and qualitative), financial modeling, and blockchain advisory for finance/banking clients across all verticals (corporate, retail, and investment banking). I have experience working in cross-functional teams, conducting analytical problem solving, and liaising with stakeholders at various levels of seniority. I thrive on building structured analysis and ambiguous and fast-paced environments (thus, the blockchain, consulting, and startup backgrounds). A bit on myself on my outlook... I have an academic background focused in global political economy and entrepreneurship/innovation which has provided me with deep insight into the construct and nuances of the global economy. Coupled with hands-on entrepreneurial experience in the FinTech space and a secondary area of study in entrepreneurial strategy, I have learned to analyze trends and data in order to identify emerging opportunities for technology, and quantify the viability of a given initiative. I pride myself on being a hybrid-thinker; taking a multidisciplinary approach to complex issues and developing comprehensive digital-driven answers through a global paradigm, all the while leveraging my business acumen and blockchain knowledge to develop scalable technology-enabled solutions suited to the private sector.
