About

Hi, I'm Renee — I'm here to get you unstuck.

As a 5x Head of Product, 2x CPO, and now a startup advisor to B2B/B2C startups, AI Coach, & Fractional CPO/CTO/COO, I've learned a lot. Use my lessons learned and hard-earned product wisdom to accelerate your journey.

I specialize in 0→1 product building. With deep experience leading SaaS innovation across diverse sectors—including FinTech, aerospace, and logistics — I bring the strategic rigor of BigTech together with deep, hands-on experience building software solutions for complex, climate-critical industries including building decarbonization, methane mitigation, waste reduction, and circular systems.

Across my mentoring, I also fold in PRODUCT-MARKET-EARTH FIT™ Consulting wherever it's relevant — helping clients balance customer needs, business viability, and climate responsibility.

My leadership foundation includes time at Intuit, early-stage startups, tech unicorns, and deep cross-functional collaboration in high-stakes environments across small - Fortune 500 companies.

Renee is an exceptional mentor. We met every week for a few months while I was starting on my second fractional gig with a B2B startup and I really appreciated all the advice she gave. I highly recommend Renee!

When I started my own fractional product business, I had twelve years of experience leading product at major tech companies, but running my own practice was a different challenge entirely. I'd landed my first clients and suddenly needed hands-on, one-on-one support that was equal parts tactical, strategic, and business-building. That's exactly what I found in Renee. What sets Renee apart is her range. In a single seventy-minute session she can move from helping me frame client expectations, to working through go-to-market strategy, to getting into the technical weeds of building out a seed-stage B2B SaaS company. I've worked with coaches who are strong on strategy but vague on execution, or sharp on tactics but unable to zoom out. Renee does both fluently, and she shifts between them exactly when I need her to. That strategic-to-technical versatility has been the most valuable thing she's given me. Just as important is who she is. Renee is warm, easy to talk to, and genuinely personal. Our sessions never feel transactional. They feel like working through hard problems with someone who's fully in your corner. After a month of meeting weekly, I'm consistently surprised by how much ground we cover and how much clearer I feel afterward. If you're building something on your own and need a mentor who can meet you wherever the problem lives, whether strategy, tactics, technical, or the messy reality of running a business, I can't recommend Renee enough.
