Experienced Product Leader and Innovator
With a Bachelor of Business Administration from the University of Washington, I have built a robust career in product management and development. My recent role as Chief Product Officer at SheMed involved driving user-centric product development and integrating AI technologies, resulting in a significant membership increase. At Yoto, I led a team that propelled the company to be one of Deloitte's top 5 fastest-growing UK startups by enhancing website sales and re-engineering subscription models. My tenure at Zapp saw the successful implementation of a referral program and expansion into new markets, contributing to a $300M funding round. Previously, at Splend, I improved user experience and reduced failed payments, aiding in a $20M investment. My experience at Condé Nast International and Bosland Consulting further honed my skills in digital strategy and agile project management. At AT&T, I achieved substantial cost savings and improved customer support efficiency through innovative web-based solutions.
