20+ years experience in digital product development, with domain expertise in media (TV, print, + digital), SaaS, and marketplaces, and with a recent focus on the future of work and generative AI.
I specialize in early stage product and customer discovery, product strategy and evangelism, and cross functional technical leadership. I know what it takes to innovate and break new ground, and how to win over, organize and empower a team to ship great products.
I have both deep and broad experience -- I've built products in startups, global media companies and everything in between. I have built, inherited and borrowed teams. I've built product from the ground up and I've run products with tens of millions of users. My greatest strength is pattern recognition; I know how to blend my experiences with the facts on the ground to come up with the right next move. My goal is always to move the ball and help my teams produce their desired outcomes by injecting the right amount of practical process.
I believe in Lean and Agile as frameworks but not as dogma -- teams need to listen to their customers and to each other, everything else is negotiable. I have deep knowledge in several domains, but I enjoy jumping in and learning a new industry. I am always looking for opportunities to teach and to learn from others -- I am a strong mentor for young product managers and a great collaborator at the executive level. My career path through engineering and corporate strategy also helps me empathize with developers and with the business; I've been in their shoes, and know how to meet their needs and make them great teammates.
Please don't hesitate to reach out for general networking or to chat about full-time or consulting opportunities, I’m open to both. Thank you!
