At antonym I wear many hats, but the most important one is that of Chief Product Officer. I have a near obsession with finding solutions to problems everyone of us can relate too.antonym is an intelligent platform to manage your life’s information, securely and with ease. Where your information presented as a single source of truth and infused with intelligence.Starting with my very own, antonym, is a reflection of me. An expression of my experiences, believes, purpose, values and dreams. Every benefit or feature something I can reflect on throughout life. Having been a solo and co-founder of previous start-ups, I can attest how difficult it is. Balancing such things as business priorities, objectives, sales and resources, a constant challenge. Developing antonym is all about creating a human centric experience. Refining, reducing, and reworking the sometimes-crazy ideas. Details matter and the need to over engineer at times, not easy to keep at bay. Seeking to bring a level of artistry to every element.I have a strong bias - surrounding how “things should be”. Difficult to overcome and sometimes construed as opinionated, not listening and stubborn. It is hard to find a balance, presenting antonym to my prospective members and clients. Data is the answer to my questions and overcoming doubt. I set clear goals to measure the potential impact by taking an analytical approach. Always learning, disciplined and being inquisitive. Always on the lookout for new sources of inspiration, many times in other spheres of life. My two decades in Information Technology served me well thus far. The architecture based on the needs and wants I would like to see coming to fruition. Understanding the enablers, dependencies, and constraints of the product decisions I make. My vision for antonym is audacious and addictive. The never-ending quest that will make a small impact on other people’s lives. It will become a craving, driven by curiosity.
