As an executive, I help teams of product managers, experience designers and engineers create and launch products that users love by

  • Translating the company's strategic goals into actionable product concepts

  • Developing and managing roadmaps that maintain alignment across teams  

  • Mentoring team leaders on strategic thinking, stakeholder management, communication across functions

Consultant

As a consultant, I help clients develop and validate new product concepts by

  • Refining and testing business models and key value propositions

  • Developing user journeys, site maps and wireframes

  • Leading development teams hands-on to create prototypes and products 

  • Defining operation and support models for products beyond launch

Mentor

As a mentor, I help growing companies make the transition from demonstrating and validating their product concept, to operating their product on an ongoing basis.
