I am the consummate square peg. I’ve been called a product person, a UX guy, a designer, a strategist, a marketer, a creative (and a few other choice names like “The Cleaner”). Overall, I have 17+ years of experience in product management and design, technology, and communications and 12+ years of leadership/management experience across teams of varying sizes. I have led Product & Design teams, worked alongside engineers & developers, and I have created and led product strategy and design efforts for a variety of companies you've definitely heard of. I have led product build and launch efforts at an international scale, and I have run many Design Sprints to help companies solve problems and test ideas, quickly. And I have founded multiple companies with varying degrees of success — but always successful learning.
