About me

I am an experienced product leader who works at the intersection of design and engineering. I build, transform and lead product organizations to deliver value to users and customers

I deliver value through thoughtful and innovative product strategies

I have spent most of my career bridging the gap between “what is possible” (engineering) and “what is valuable” (customer needs).  As both a trained engineer (BSEE) and business advocate (MBA) I bring a unique perspective to the world of product development and voice of the customer

During my professional career I’ve worked in manufacturing, financial services, insurance, crop science, distribution and consumer goods (I think that’s everything…) in roles that span the “concept to cash” lifecycle including: Product Manager, Product Marketing Manager, Director of Marketing, Sr Product Manager, Director – Product Leadership and Engagement Director

What I do

From defining your strategic vision and designing user-centric blueprints to optimizing agile delivery and data governance, I provide the end-to-end expertise required to transform complex business needs into high-growth products.   To do this I focus on 3 main “pillars” of expertise

Product Innovation & Commercialization

I bridge the gap between vision and profitability by transforming organizations into proactive "CEOs of their products." This pillar focuses on defining the "why" and "how" of a product's market success.

User-Centric design and experience

I align human needs with technical requirements by designing end-to-end experiences and the business processes that support them. This pillar focuses on the "what" and "for whom" of the product journey.

agile Product Ops & Organizational maturity

I ensure products are built right and teams are built better. This pillar focuses on the "when" and "how well" of delivery, focusing on operational excellence and team growth.
