• About:
• Founding the Odyssey product studio is my proudest professional achievement. Initially a consultant for Odyssey — an international business advisory firm headquartered in British Columbia — I identified the opportunity to launch a B2B product studio focused on MVP development for our clients. I presented the vision to the CEO and successfully persuaded him to found the studio in September 2021.
• Building a high-performing team was critical to our success. I hired and led 14+ professionals (product, engineering, and ML), together delivering AI-powered MVPs and POCs (leveraging LLM, NLP, and Computer Vision) for clients scaling in North America and the UK. Our portfolio spanned B2C Digital Health, Chatbots, and SaaS. Beyond product delivery, we helped clients shape investor narratives, prepare product demos and pitches, and ultimately secure seed funding. During my tenure, we supported 6 early-stage businesses on their journey to investment.
