During that time Alex has been a great mentor, team leader, and overall strong partner to design. Alex is calm under pressure, action-oriented, and a roll-up-the-sleeves get stuff done product leader. For example, Alex and I were asked to cover for a PM backfill on one of the largest and most technical products at Snapdocs. Despite leading another large product area at that time, Alex put in the extra time and effort to ensure he understood the complexities and nuances of the new product through and through which enabled him to quickly earn the respect and trust of the team. Alex gets his hands dirty and does what it takes to get the context he needs to make informed decisions about product strategy and I'm grateful to have had him as a mentor during my time at Snapdocs.", "I worked with Alex for 3 years at Asurion and directly for 1 year. He really helped me to improve as an engineer by thinking with a product mindset. He is focused on being data driven, has a clear understanding of the value stream, and understands the perfect balance between innovation and building scalable reliable solutions. I also had the pleasure of working together with Alex on a hackathon project that won 1st place regionally. Any team would be lucky to have Alex on board.", and "I am lucky to have met and worked with Alex for the past three years. He's an incredibly talented product leader, author, and mentor. I am amazed by his ability and innate drive to grow continuously. I've seen him drive significant business results by synthesizing complex problem statements into simple customer stories, craft well-formed hypothesis, conduct user interviews, prioritize ruthlessly, provide his team with space to come up with innovative solutions, execute thoughtful and measurable rapid experiments, and interpret data into actional insights. He played an instrumental role in launching Asurion's onboarding product and leading the transformation of our product from voice-first to digital experience resulting in a 76% increase in engagement, 4.6/5.0 star rating, and a 19% reduction in churn. Through his writing and research, Alex has gained a vast amount of knowledge and perspective that he can leverage for any situation. He has impressive communication skills, both written and verbally. He has an incredible ability to help people operate at their best and live a more meaningful life, all while delivering results. I admire his deep thinking skills. He is an extremely intelligent product mind, thought leader, and a respected mentor. He will have an immediate impact on any product-driven organization he joins both by driving business results and cultivating a high performing team-oriented culture - they would be lucky to have him."
