I help product managers land their next role, grow into product leadership, and turn ambiguous product challenges into clear strategies and action plans.
I’m a product and growth leader with 12+ years of experience across Amazon, Intuit, and MGM Resorts. I’ve built products from 0 to 1, scaled a marketplace to $100M in sales, led commerce and payment experiences supporting $1.2B in digital revenue, and modernized sales platforms for a $1.6B business. I’ve also led teams across product, design, engineering, analytics, and go-to-market.
I can help you:
* Break into product management or position yourself for your next role
* Strengthen your resume, career story, and interview strategy
* Prepare for product sense, execution, strategy, and leadership interviews
* Grow from individual contributor into a confident product leader
* Navigate difficult stakeholders, organizational ambiguity, and career decisions
* Validate ideas, define an MVP, sharpen product strategy, and prioritize what matters
As a hiring manager at Amazon and Intuit, I’ve interviewed hundreds of candidates and hired dozens of PMs across multiple levels. I know what separates a capable candidate from one who stands out, and I’ll give you direct, practical feedback on your stories, cases, and interview performance.
My mentoring style is candid, supportive, and grounded in real situations. I won’t give you generic frameworks and send you on your way. We’ll work through your specific challenge, identify what is holding you back, and leave each session with clear decisions and concrete next steps.
If you’re navigating a career move, preparing for an interview, stepping into leadership, or facing a difficult product decision, send me a message with your goal and where you feel stuck. We’ll determine the best path forward together.
