Nadia is a UX-first PM obsessed with chasing after messy problems.
I love
Untangling messy problems
They exist everywhere. From solving transport in a foreign country to bugs in my favorite products, I've been a detective since I was a child helping my parents design their website. That entrepreneur spirit, the joy in the little things, and my want to help my community exist in everything I do now.
I've been problem obsessed since before I knew what Product Management was...
started a company at 16
Teens United - 24k in grant funding to help communities from NYC to Miami, and a lot of learning on the job, mid-COVID.

completed 6 internships and 3 startups
from SoFi to PwC, and learning just how much work being a founding anything is (and how rewarding).
2022-2025
Audacity, Joy, and Disruption.
And I discovered my ethos. Have the audacity to chase after what you believe in, build something that brings joy, and never be afraid to shake things up.
