I’m a systems thinker, business and process nerd, experience designer, product manager with an entrepreneurial nature, a creative and pragmatic POV about technology, mixed with deep empathy for all things on our tiny blue planet.
If you’re on this page, you may have found me because I applied to your open role. One of the jobs I’m pretty damn good at is managing groups of people who are tasked with working cross-functionally to deliver a product to a customer. Vague? A little, yes and that’s because my skills are a horizontal play and can be applied to facilitating results in places like healthcare tech or software delivery or enterprise sales and marketing or career coaching or even robotics.
When I’m working with folks, my approach is to…
Create transparency and trust. Improve, incrementally. Act with kindness, respect and curiosity. Listen, ask questions, learn from missteps, get sh*t done and have some fun along the way.
If I’ve learned anything from the school of life, and my most important mentor, Peter Drucker, who is known as the father of modern management, it’s to pay attention to the details then zoom out and connect the intricacies.
Embrace the unconventional, humanistic thinker I am – as unapologetically as possible – and practice creating shared understanding.
From features in a software application to focusing on big societal dreams. Question everything, check for common understanding, generate engagement and get to work. Use good management practices as a bulwark against breakdowns.
Yes, I sometimes digress which isn’t helpful if you’re looking for a portfolio 🎨
Some examples of my work are available.
Like most of us geeky, nerdy, curious types, I wasted some time, money, planetary resources messing with some of the AI ‘stuff’ that’s been unleashed in the last couple of years.
I have thoughts about where we are with these tools but for now, I’ll just leave the weird headshot.
