Romario builds products for people making things.

I’m currently a Senior Product Manager at Restream, helping creators turn live video into clips they can share everywhere.

I grew up in Cape Town, South Africa, where I spent most of my time making and learning. Somewhere between designing café menus, baking pastries, roasting coffee, and teaching myself Photoshop on a pirated license, I fell in love with the art of making and with the learning curve that comes with it.

That curiosity led me into design and marketing at startups, and eventually into product. Starting out as a designer still shapes how I build: I care about craft, move quickly, and stay close to the details. Since moving to London, I’ve led products from strategy through to launch across consumer and business software and digital–physical experiences.

When I’m not in front of my screen, I’m usually learning French, exploring new places, sweating over the kitchen stove, or capturing moments with my Ricoh.
