Customer-obsessed Product Manager with a background in electrical engineering and a passion for solving challenging problems. Seeking to leverage my technical expertise, customer empathy, and strategic mindset to develop compelling solutions that customers love. I am looking for a forward-thinking organization that champions the growth mindset and outcomes over output in a creative and collaborative environment. From 2020 through 2024, I worked as a Product Manager for Turntide Technologies, a sustainability technology company who commercialized a highly efficient switched-reluctance electrical motor used primarily in HVAC applications. I managed the motor drive product line and was integral to the product transformation that occurred to support the company as it entered the growth-stage of its life.From 2012 through 2020, I worked for Toshiba International Corporation, Toshiba's North American headquarters for industrial motors and power electronics. I worked within the low-voltage drives team as an Applications Engineer, digging deep into the multitudes of use-cases for electric motors in industrial and commercial markets. In May 2012 I graduated from The University of Texas at Austin with a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering specializing in Communications and Signal Processing with additional academic enrichment in Embedded Systems development. My senior design project involved the development of a GPS dog-collar system and companion Android app resulting in a 2nd-place finish in the university-wide design competition.
