About

About Me:

I'm an early-stage product leader who specializes in building 0-to-1 products and scaling PM teams at high-growth B2B companies. Over the past decade, I've launched new product pillars that generated $20M+ in ARR at GitLab, scaled PM orgs through hypergrowth at Remote (0→18 PMs, 566% YoY revenue growth), and tightened product-market fit at startups like Okteto (4x ARR, 95% retention) and Vectara (2.5x deal size lift). I focus on the fundamentals: picking the right bets, shipping fast, and aligning cross-functional teams around outcomes that matter.

How I Can Help You:

I work with mid-to-senior PMs and product leaders who are taking on greater scope, whether you're managing your first team, owning a larger product surface, or standing up the product function at a startup.

I'll help you:

- Build and scale your product function from first PM hire through team structure, operating cadence, and the systems that let you move fast without breaking things

- Sharpen your strategic bets by pressure-testing your product vision, helping you say no to good ideas, and focusing the org on outcomes that move the business

- Lead through complexity by sharing how I've aligned exec teams, navigated board dynamics, and built trust with engineering, GTM, and cross-functional partners in ambiguous environments

My approach is direct and grounded in pattern recognition. We'll tackle the messy, high-stakes challenges you're facing (e.g. a pivot decision, an underperforming team, or preparing for your next role) and I'll share what's worked (and what hasn't) across multiple startups.

Let's Connect:

If you're ready to move faster, make bigger bets in your PM career, and/or ready to build a world-class product team that delivers meaningful outcomes, let's talk. Reach out with a brief note about what you're working on and where you want to grow. I'd love to help you get there.
