Hire me

I joined the tech industry ten years ago after finishing a Master's degree that focused on the impact of strategic alignment on business tactics.

I found my home in product four years ago. When I quizzed team members* on my strengths, they shared that I:

  • Empathize with what others need to do their job. This is key to my collaboration style and why I am good at managing difficult conversations.
  • Validate my assumptions, specifically with the technical teams. This ensures the developers on my team feel heard and valued.
  • Do an “incredible job” of seeing the end goal and honing in on the next steps so MVP features are functional and can be built up.
  • Present to the organization in a “super-engaging” way that quickly brings people up to speed.
  • Do my homework. If I'm advocating for a feature, there is strong reasoning and evidence behind the recommendation.

If you are interested to see if I fit with your organization, please reach out for a conversation!
