When product decisions get complex—I bring clarity

I'm a product leader with 10+ years building marketplaces and platforms in healthcare, HR-tech, and education. I specialize in navigating ambiguity—balancing competing stakeholders, exploring new customer segments, or aligning technical work to business value. I lead rapid discovery to figure out what matters, then design systems that scale.

Let's Talk

Three Types of Complexity I Solve

Product complexity shows up in different forms. My approach is consistent: lead discovery to bring clarity, then architect systems that enable rapid growth.

🎯

Multi-Stakeholder Platforms

Balancing competing needs in marketplaces and multi-sided products—recruiters vs. candidates, educators vs. learners, presenters vs. audiences. I figure out who to serve first and how to create value for all sides.

📈

Customer Segment Expansion

Understanding what new segments value to unlock growth—from staffing to direct-hire employers, enterprise to SMB, agency relationships to direct pharma. I run discovery to inform positioning, pricing, and product strategy.

⚙️

Technical & Strategic Alignment

Connecting technical work to business outcomes—giving direction to platform initiatives, modernization efforts, and organizational ambiguity. I clarify what success looks like and why it matters.

What I'm Looking For

I'm currently exploring Principal/Staff Product Manager roles at mission-driven companies (50-500 people) in healthcare, HR-tech, and education—places where rapid discovery and systems thinking can drive meaningful impact, especially when the path forward isn't clear.
