Product leader for consumer and enterprise products in AI, social, eCommerce, gaming, gov and defense. Startup founder, coach and consultant.
I love building things and solving problems. With 23+ years of agile product management experience with medium to large scale products, I've assumed the role of 'head of products', 'product manager' and 'product owner' in my most recent assignments. I consider discovery & requirements gathering, backlog creation & maintenance and planning & executing of roadmaps as my bread and butter vocation. I've received formal training in business analytics for decision-making, and my technical makes me an ideal fit to speak both tech and business.
