โญ๏ธWhy I mentor
As a first-generation immigrant, I have a unique perspective on the challenges navigating a technology career. I have always been drawn to the fast-paced world of technology and have been fortunate to work in a number of high-growth start-ups, where I have seen companies along the $10 million to $100 million ARR journey. One of my proudest achievements is my commitment to diversity and inclusion in the workplace. Over 50% of the people I have hired have been women and minorities, and I have always been an advocate for creating a welcoming and inclusive environment for all employees. I have spent the past 10+ years building, developing, and scaling new SaaS products and businesses in growth markets. Throughout my career, I have focused on solving real customer pain points and needs by creating products that are useful, usable, and used. As someone who has faced many challenges and overcome many obstacles, I am passionate about sharing my hard-earned learning with others. I believe that by sharing my experiences and knowledge, I can help make the journey to success a little easier for others.

How do you break into product management from data analytics?
Utilize your data analytics background by finding an industry that values that skill set, such as data analytics products. To gain functional experience, consider attending a product management bootcamp or participating in free startup weekends, bootcamps, or volunteer projects. While it may be tempting to aim for a big tech company right away (which is not impossible but improbably if you are not graduating from undergrad or grad), it's also worth considering mid-sized companies for product operations or larger companies for internal product management roles. Network with and learn from experienced product managers at those companies and use that experience as a stepping stone to product management roles in your next role.
Hope this helps!
