Kristen Shi

I'm a Senior Product Manager at Lyft, with 5 YOE of experience managing ML/AI products, data, search features, and web applications. I've worked in the consulting, startup, and large tech space, and am a career transitioner with no technical background in coding or data. I am living proof of someone who 'faked it till they made it'. :)

My specialty is helping people get their first job in product, or succeed at making the transition from a related role (like BA, consulting, finance, academia) into a technology one. I can also help you learn to adapt product principles to challenges you're facing at work, and build up key product skillsets (prioritizing, writing PRDs, navigating ambiguity).

Some things I can offer you include:
- Resume review
- Determining what 'kind' of PM you want to be
- Interview prep + mocks (product sense & execution)
- Career coaching/advice
- A curated list of resources for product management job seekers

You would be a great mentee for me if:
- You know your 'why' for working in product already
- You have a resume ready to review
- You have concrete goals for the mentorship, whether that's getting a new job or levelling up proficiency in product
- You are motivated and take feedback well

We can also talk shop on the following:
- Developing ML features / personalization strategy
- A/B testing strategies, audience segmentation
- Prioritization frameworks
- Different PM specialties
- Influencing without authority
- Hotspots for product opportunities in the future

None of the plans suit you? Send me an inquiry and we can discuss setting up a custom plan/pricing that fits your needs.
