Experienced Product Manager with a Proven Track Record of Success
What is it?
A product management practice rooted in strategy, shaped by cross-functional team leadership, and sharpened through years of agile delivery. I bring a human-centered lens to software product management merging user experience insights with iterative planning to guide teams from concept to deployment.
What does it do for me?
You get a product leader who ships features aligned to business requirements and user needs, a backlog prioritized with clarity, and momentum built through actionable roadmaps, sprint-ready workflows, and outcome-based thinking.
I lead with context, not assumptions
My start in hospitality and business management followed by a second learning journey into computer science shaped how I think about people, environments, and interaction design. After reskilling into technical product management, I spent 20 years applying that foundation to UX, agile methodologies, product strategy, and business analysis. I rely on both behavioral insight and structured tools because real innovation requires both empathy and systems thinking.
Strategy is only as good as the follow-through
From roadmap planning to Jira-based sprint tracking, I ensure that product strategy becomes executable through well-defined user stories, clear acceptance criteria, and collaboration across engineering, product marketing, and design. I document in Confluence, diagram in Lucidchart, and help teams connect workflows to outcomes.
I turn abstract ideas into shippable priorities
I use agile frameworks like Scrum from scrum.org and SAFE POPM from scaled agile frameworks to break down complex initiatives into sprint-ready tasks. From journey maps and SQL-backed data analysis to backlog grooming and stakeholder demos I guide product development across all lifecycle phases, including mobile product development and scalable platform work.
Outcomes I’ve delivered
- Launched “The Sustainable Choice” platform scaled consumer adoption from 0 to 200 in the first month
- Reduced VAT refund support tickets by 20% through UX optimization and team-focused feedback loops
- Accelerated integration timelines by 40% via API-led strategy and improved workflow optimization
- Improved premium event operations at Madison Square Garden through agile execution and data-informed teamwork
What it’s like to work with me
Backlog prioritization means making trade-offs. And when you're managing cross-functional teams, those decisions come with pressure. Maybe your marketing lead wants to refocus on branding. Your IT lead starts pulling developers into exploratory hobby projects. Your operations lead pushes for fire drills that weren’t scoped for this sprint.
I stay grounded by transparent quarterly themes and product strategy alignment. If the priorities hold I defend them. If the business case changes, I help teams pivot with focus, not chaos. In the background, I bring systems, tools, and just enough process to keep people moving together not just moving.
From Strategic Vision to Sprint Delivery
Align leadership around strategic priorities.
Frame initiatives around near-term business goals.
Connect engineering, UX, marketing, and operations to shared outcomes.
Turn strategy into prioritized initiatives and sequencing.
Rank features based on impact, feasibility, and dependencies.
Break initiatives into actionable user stories and technical spikes.
Collaboratively refine backlog items and size work with team expertise.
Finalize sprint plans with commitment to achievable goals.
Deliver increments, inspect outcomes, and adapt future plans.
When collaboration is missing at any stage, silence often leads to silos. Intentional connection is key to sustaining momentum and outcomes.
Let’s talk about what you’re building
If you need a partner who understands business requirements, UX strategy, stakeholder engagement, agile delivery, and cross-functional execution I’d love to hear from you. Whether it’s early-stage market research, a software product launch, or a team that needs structure, I can help bring clarity and momentum to the work ahead.
