Profile

I've been a global product manager for more than 10 years, working across the whole product lifecycle.

Before that, I was a user experience designer and product usability expert. I am involved in every aspect of dreaming up, designing, building, marketing and selling a product. Some of my roles:

  • I present product strategy to customers, investors, and distributors globally. Technical and non-technical audiences alike.
  • I facilitate usability workshops with customers to uncover opportunities. 
  • I write and present talks at industry conferences, along with webinars for global audiences.
  • I look to expand our product scope in line with business goals. I assess M&A opportunities and look for adjacent features and tech we might incorporate. 
  • Also a product designer and front end developer, I design and build products with the latest tech. 
  • I use Adobe products, Figma, and develop in several javascript frameworks like Angular and React. As someone who’s written my share of custom stylesheets, I’m a huge fan of Tailwind CSS.
  • I read a ton. I write a ton. I am a sometime musician. I can create and deliver a killer Keynote, and will continue to do so until AI can do it better.

What's with the giraffe?

A burning giraffe appears in many Dali paintings. I’ve used it as a logo because it stands at a nexus of topics dear to me. It represents everything I like about Dali and surrealism. Broader: my appreciation for painting and visual arts that can shift you outside your comfort zone. Broader still: a symbol of creativity. Plus I just like giraffes.
