Hi! I’m Farah
I am a dynamic and passionate Product Manager with an engineering background as well as a keen eye for design and usability.
For the last 7 years I’ve been working on digital product for the security and the telco industries. I am also an art lover and I’ve dedicated some of my time lately to painting.
