Gubagoo | E‑Commerce, B2B, B2C
Scaled a six-person startup into a market leader across 15+ countries
I joined the startup at a very early stage. Step by step, we developed our first product, ChatSmart. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we created a breakthrough product, “Car Buying Online,” that generated extraordinary demand and helped the company become a leader in the industry across the USA, UK, Singapore, Australia, and beyond.

In the beginning, I was involved in every aspect of Gubagoo’s products, from marketing to mobile and desktop apps — typical startup life, right? :)
After launching Car Buying Online, hired a team of designers, created a design system, and shifted my focus to the Glive platform, while continuing to share my knowledge with the team.

My Key achievements & impact
Helped grow the company from a startup to a global corporation with tens of thousands of employees.

Developed the product strategy for online car sales that enabled showroom-free purchasing across the US, UK, Eurozone, Singapore, the UAE, and Australia.

Yaric Sam managed me directly
For the last 3-4 years been working with Anna on various projects. I've seen the interest to product design and beyond that for public speaking, presentations, video and so on. One of the strengths I found great is that no matter how big is the task or small she would just start working on it when other people might found themselves in a struggle with lack of data or context. Anna always tried to gave insights about the designs/product she was working on. We successfully overcome challenges and launched a few products. It was pleasure to work with you. Thank you!
