Projects
Much of my work is confidential: I work on future strategies. Here I share what I can in a format of short projects notes highlighting one aspect of my work at the time: finding product-market fit, designing a new brand, gathering a team, mapping a user journey, etc.
My community building, podcast, and teaching work are at Posit.
Wait… so what do you actually do?
People hire me to solve a problem: to develop a strategy (recently it usually about AI), to build a product or design team, to improve user experience.
I do Product Management, UX Design, and Strategy. I’m into Agile and Design Thinking as well.
I apply my skills and expertise to empower a team and ship a great product.
