Hello! I'm Stefan
I am The Digital Narrator
About me…
I'm a happily married man and an enthusiastic father—those two roles are the foundation of everything I do. When I'm not focused on family, you'll likely find me in a few different places: quietly meditating to center my day, getting a good workout in (I'm a big fan of calisthenics and working with my own body weight), or completely absorbed in learning something new—I believe curiosity should be a daily practice! On the creative side, I love to design furniture in my spare time, and on the analytical side, I enjoy exploring new investment opportunities. It's this mix of grounding, growth, and creativity that keeps life exciting!
My Pro Story so far…
For over ten years, I've had the privilege of working across the globe as a Product/Project Manager in software development. My sweet spot is building and managing platform products. To me, product management isn't just about managing a roadmap; it's about writing the daily story of the product. I ensure every decision is logged, every user story is heard, and every new feature truly moves the plot forward. I'm highly data-driven and thrive on delivering measurable results. I use user behaviour and platform data like a compass, driving increases in engagement, efficiency, and profitability. I enjoy cross-functional collaboration and team leadership, making sure we all rally around a clear product vision, strategy, and roadmap. Ultimately, my goal is always to deliver successful outcomes that align perfectly with our broader business objectives.
