Visionary
I see product management as a mix of art and science to be used as a driver of customer delight. I’m the catalyst that mixes ideas, pushes concepts and finds the best way to energize brands through sophisticated go-to-market strategies.
Strategic
I am an entrepreneur and I think like an entrepreneur. An that means constantly identifying opportunities to grow the business, the brand, whether indirectly or directly through great design and marketing.
Hands-On
I enjoy rolling up my sleves and getting into the nitty gritty of the work, whether it’s code, design, or content, yet my goal is ultimately to be a “thought-leader” and provide more inspiration than ideas.
Problem-Solver
I don’t believe in marketing without a goal. I see product management as a mix of art and science where content, design and technology play a role in creating solutions that improve the consumer experience.
Collaborative
My most important attribute is the ability to build great teams. I work exceptionally well across all key functional areas including sales, technology, operations, and customer service. I am the unicorn who can communicate with coders, customers and the C-Suite execs.
Ambitious
I’m always looking for opportunities and I’m not afraid to take risks for the sake of making things better. The one quote hanging over my desk… “I fear regret, more than I fear failure.” — author unknown.
