What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, where I can leverage my product management expertise to drive impactful solutions.

I am a strategic product leader with over 11 years of experience in shaping habit-forming, emotionally resonant digital products. My unique blend of systems thinking, behavioral insight, and creative rigor allows me to design product rituals that drive measurable growth and lasting engagement. I am known for my ability to translate complex ideas into a clear vision, building data-informed roadmaps and leading high-performing cross-functional teams through more than 50 launches across 15 industries.

In my role as Lead Product Manager, I have served as a solo product consultant across various sectors, including wellness, finance, Web3, education, and commercial real estate. A highlight of my career includes my work with Nike, where I developed a personalized wellness MVP that reduced time-to-definition by 40%. My strategic roadmapping efforts compressed discovery-to-concept timelines by three times, and I reframed Nike's internal innovation ecosystem into prototype-ready opportunity briefs.

As a Senior Product Manager at TribalScale, I led the product division, overseeing nine cross-functional delivery teams and launching over 20 digital products in less than two years. My initiatives resulted in over $4.1 million in projected revenue and improved team performance metrics significantly. I am passionate about mentoring and developing talent, having implemented standardized Agile practices that reduced ramp-up time for new Product Managers by 45%.
