About

Experienced B2B Product Leader with a passion for innovative, amazing and delightful product solutions that drive business value. With a background in product consulting and product management, I've communicated strategic product roadmaps, launch plans, and go to market strategies across all levels of the business. Building a product vision, clarifying must-haves and getting clarity on jobs-to-be-done are all techniques that I use to drive product success. I'm a great believer in driving results but working with a team to deliver exceptional success. I enjoy my espresso at home and am looking for upgrade recommendations to improve my coffee game.
