Lead Product Owner driving AI-enabled, governed enterprise data products.
What I'm looking for
I’m a product leader with over a decade of experience spanning product ownership, enterprise data strategy, and governance across global, cross-functional organizations. I’ve led and coached product professionals while driving Agile-at-scale delivery (SAFe) across distributed teams.
I champion AI adoption in day-to-day product ownership—embedding tools such as Copilot, ChatGPT, and Claude to accelerate requirements gathering, prototyping, and delivery workflows. I partner with engineering on API-first, microservices-based solutions and turn ambiguous business needs into clear, prioritized roadmaps for technical and non-technical stakeholders.
My work also strengthens trust and outcomes through data governance, metadata management, and data lineage—supporting compliance (HIPAA, HITECH) and audit readiness. I’ve built governance frameworks for enterprise CSR and sustainability reporting, authoring PRDs/BRDs/FRDs and managing backlog ownership, velocity/capacity/dependencies, and executive-ready reporting.
