I'm a Product Leader and Founding Team Member at SignDesk (now Melento), where I've grown from QA Lead to Associate Director Product over 6+ years. Starting as a Test Engineer at Infosys, I realized I cared more about what we were building than just testing it — and that's when I moved into product management. I've never looked back since.
