I managed 2 key products that I built from the ground up—Invoice Automation (IA) and Purchase Order Automation (POA). After creating the minimum viable product (MVP) for a client, I rolled out beta to multiple customers and continue to add specifications, features, functionalities, and decentralized workflows to increase its market share. Since its release a year ago, its reach has expanded to an estimated $1.8M in revenue growth for 2023. In this role, I also salvaged client relationships for a client with 70 locations integrated into our platform. My relationship with this client has also enabled Paymerang to break into a new industry. My plans for 2023 included integrating IA into payment automation (PA) to streamline the overall experience, develop go-to-market (GTM) strategy for automated PO, and integrate IA and PA into high-profile ERP platforms including Oracle and NetSuite.

Since Paymerang Financial Services did not have an official product team, I filled the role of Product Manager responsible for identifying areas of improvement or new business development. My efforts in this role enabled the client account management team to improve automation throughout their product implementation process. I grew implementations 4x to accommodate a larger customer base and expand to multiple industries. I also scaled the infrastructure to enable the team to grow from 3 to 30.

I built a thriving wedding and event-planning business from the ground up. As part of my personal brand, I drafted numerous publications and participated in multiple speaking engagements with industry-leading companies and brands including New York Times, Reader’s Digest, The Knot, Southern Weddings, Coastal Bride, and more. A link to my publications can be found here.

I fulfilled multiple roles while at Allianz, from Account Manager to Global Product Manager. I facilitated big room planning to define and map product iterations, write stories, and gather acceptance criteria as a key resource and SME. For 5 years, I led a project to create and integrate a centralized CRM across multiple countries.
