What I'm looking for

I seek a senior/executive product role at a growth-stage SaaS company building AI-enabled products where I can lead cross-functional teams, drive enterprise adoption, and deliver measurable revenue and customer impact in a collaborative, results-driven culture.

I am a senior product leader with 20+ years building and scaling SaaS and AI-enabled products from startup to acquisition. I blend product vision, UX strategy and pragmatic execution to drive measurable revenue and enterprise adoption.

I led product roadmaps and GTM for hardware + SaaS and enterprise platforms, contributing to $80M+ in revenue, securing enterprise adoption by elite programs, and co-founding/exiting multiple startups. I also scaled a video feedback marketplace to 500+ vetted experts and 10K+ users, and delivered UX work that increased re-engagement by 45%.

I specialize in aligning engineering, design, marketing and sales around clear roadmaps using Agile/Scrum, and I advise startups on product-market fit, fundraising, and GTM. I look to lead cross-functional teams to build AI-driven, enterprise-grade SaaS that deliver measurable business outcomes.
