Director of Product, Digital Transformation
I work where product strategy, engineering, operations, compliance, and vendors meet. In the Philippines, I led the replacement and rollout of the ordering platform across app and web. Six months after full migration, sales were up 12% and transactions 13% — more conversion, and continue growing.

2025 — Accountable for the Philippines ordering platform across app and web, working with regional teams and multiple vendors to replace the legacy platform and roll out the new one.
2022 — Helped lift the app rating from 3.x to 4.8 by improving feedback capture and prioritizing stability and core UX over feature volume.
2023 — Led the app's design revamp and the launch of the 30-minute guarantee, the brand's key selling point, across the full experience — not just the app.
Products I have owned or guided across platform strategy, stability, and customer experience. Ratings are current as of Aug 2026.
I made platform reliability a gate for checkout optimization, then led a controlled replacement through three-plus beta phases and progressive rollout.
Read →A paid fraud check requested at a browsing moment — relocated to the moment of purchase intent, coverage intact.
Read →Same evaluation method, two vendor calls, opposite answers. One contract structure changed; one popular request was turned down — and accepted.
Read →Every feature runs through one question: does this need to be identical everywhere, or does this market actually need something different?
Read →Engineer → payments → banking → product leadership. Each step added a layer.
Built Smart TV and hybrid mobile apps — where the shift from engineer to product began.
Learned how systems actually work.

Samsung Pay — partner integrations, global service deployment, vendor delivery. Also coordinated with an e-wallet partner to launch the Galaxy Gift Card as a prepaid marketing tool, and built the first local pre-order & gift redemption site, working closely with marketing from Galaxy S8 onward.
Learned commerce plumbing and partner ecosystems.

TTB Bank commercial digital — built and owned an internal platform for onboarding new juristic (corporate) customers: account opening and KYC.
Learned to ship inside compliance.
Minor Food Group — owned the backlogs for Swensen's and The Pizza Company, then led a team of eight in-house developers running both brands' apps.
Learned to sequence work across competing brands, then to lead builders.
Jollibee Foods Corporation — Promoted from Senior Technical Product Owner. Lead the flagship-market platform, guide product teams across multiple regions, manage two product owners, and direct multi-vendor delivery.
Where all of it compounds.

A bilingual pet-adoption and rehoming platform serving Thailand. I designed, built, and operate the product end to end.

A privacy-first Chrome extension that prompts healthy screen breaks without tracking personal data. Designed, built, published, and maintained independently.
“Junior instinct treats every request as binary. Senior instinct asks a different question first.”
Most requests are directionally right, placed at the wrong point — in the funnel, in the org, in time. The senior skill is relocating the idea, not rejecting it.
