Seasoned ed tech product leader dedicated to helping tech-enabled education reach its potential to transform lives, with a focus on the future of work. I help people gain the toolsets, skillsets, and mindsets they need to succeed in the economy of today and tomorrow. In my previous role focusing on feature development, platforming and scaling, and innovation, I managed our product, engineering, student success, job placement, and operations teams. I collaborated deeply with everybody else (marketing, admissions, academics). In brief, I have experience thinking of academic products and services holistically, from the time a student applies to the time they get a job, and beyond. I was also the executive leading our diversity & inclusion efforts, to get Kenzie ever closer to reflecting its vision of creating opportunity. Blending business and technical savvy, I've owned all parts of the product lifecycle, including product vision, product strategy, product design, and product planning. I've worked with all sizes of companies, cross-functional teams, and user communities. Expert on implementing, using, and combining development methodologies like Scrum/Agile/Lean, as well as when waterfall (gasp!) makes sense. Berkeley (Haas) MBA 2007.
