The resume they said I couldn't write
Profile
For over two decades, I've been the person companies call when they need to transform vague business dreams into actual products that customers actually care about. From scrappy startups to Fortune 100 behemoths, I've helped organizations grow through strategic product management that actually works.
A Zero-to-One product leader who's built a reputation for cutting through corporate nonsense, getting stubborn stakeholders to play nice together, creating cultures where people don't hate Mondays, recruiting talent that doesn't just look good on paper, and developing leaders who inspire rather than terrorize.
A trained Meeting Facilitator and Negotiator who can guide a room full of conflicting perspectives toward alignment without anyone storming out dramatically.
Co-Founded and bootstrapped a SaaS company for corporate event planners to $10M in revenue without venture capital—just good old-fashioned product sense and a culture where people didn't want to fake their own deaths to avoid coming to work.
Developed a mobile app that used machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) to match conference attendees before "AI" became something everyone slapped on their product description.
Led the go-to-market planning and execution for the first iPad app for reading digital replicas of magazines when everyone else was still trying to figure out if tablets were just oversized phones.
Created Audible.com's podcasting platform enabling groundbreaking capabilities like dynamic ad insertion, flexible episode configuration, playback measurement, third-party audited analytics and secure, encrypted distribution of audio that kept corporate communications from leaking all over the internet.
Reduced Audible.com's cost of content by 90% after repurposing the podcasting platform into a self-publishing marketplace for audiobooks.
Launched a new app for Dell adding immediate incremental profit to every supported Consumer PC, because who doesn't like finding money they didn't know they had?
Created the first-ever digital lottery in Dubai for Lottery.com using the web and mobile apps, revolutionizing how people lose money with a small chance of winning big.
