“Be yourself; everyone else is already taken” - Most probably the most applicable quote I live by. I’m a Product Manager for Tracker Connect, a Vehicle Telematics and Services Company focused on making the subscriber’s journey better. Be it for the general consumer of for a specialized fleet operator concerned about inefficiencies and costs. I predominantly specialize in the corporate space looking at product needs for the fleet sector in SA and Africa. I have worn many hats in my 18 year career at Tracker and I am grateful for the experience I gained, ranging from Finance, Sales and Account management, Support and Product / Project Management. The greatest achievement thus far was contributing and being part of the journey, taking Tracker form a pure 1 product stolen vehicle recovery business consisting of +/- 100 employees to a company specializing in various market segments with 15+ products and a workforce of 1200+ people. Before joining Tracker, I worked for two financial institutions gaining experience in general banking, creditors, and debtors, insurance and marketing. I’m truly passionate about my work and always eager to connect, engage and assist in reaching a common goal, be it on a personal or professional level. While I enjoy all aspects of my job, I think my favorite responsibility would be to research technology in order to find the relevant application for such technologies within our business. Seeing a product or process being successful is satisfactory and to see it grow even more so. - I am extremely passionate - I can communicate well - I am very analytically inclined, aiding me in my decision-making - I do not only have excellent ideas, but I make them reality - I do not shy away from crisis’s - Winning is key, regardless of who gets the credit
