About

With 15+ years of experience from startups to global companies, I've developed the skills and experience to create and launch products that truly resonate with users. Throughout my career, I've been fortunate enough to lead cross-functional teams and launch innovative products at the intersection of content, technology, and business. I've worked on launches of culture-defining products like uberPOOL, Facebook Live, and content personalization algorithms on Netflix. Since then, I’ve also built and launched products from scratch, leaning into hard skills and efficient tactics, from breaking through as a #1 search result through SEO optimization, to building high converting marketing campaigns with less than $20K in budget. As a co-founder of Outpace, I’ve worn many hats, working with our team to tap into the intersection of key trends, from generative AI to micro-learning. We raised a $3.2M pre-seed round from top investors and leaders in the field of learning and development, including Julie Zhuo, Cyan Bannister, Steve Schlaffman, James Beshara, and others. These experiences have allowed me to hone my skills in product marketing, product management, and growth, giving me a unique perspective on what it takes to build successful products from ideation to launch. As a product leader, I know that success is built on a foundation of collaboration, experimentation, and a relentless focus on the customer. Whether I'm leading teams or working independently, I'm constantly seeking out new and innovative ways to drive growth and create products that delight users. But my success isn't just about the products I've launched – it's also about the way I approach leadership. I believe in putting people first - both users and my team members. And I'm passionate about helping others achieve their own goals and succeed (so much so that I also coach)! If you're interested in building at the forefront of new technology, I'd love to connect. 👋🏼 Specialties: product marketing, product management, consumer technology, entrepreneurship, customer acquisition, business strategy, market research, go-to-market, positioning, branding, coaching, growth.
