I'm a Product Manager building zero-to-one B2B SaaS products at Qapita, where I own the venture capital operations product end-to-end — from discovery through launch. My focus is the alternate investments domain, where I bring together complex regulatory workflows, sophisticated user needs, and AI-driven automation to make operations measurably faster. I've reduced enterprise onboarding time by 60% and driven a 20% improvement in product adoption by staying close to customers and letting data steer the roadmap.
