Helping teams develop great new software products for enterprise customers and bring them to market has always been my passion. I've done this successfully in both large companies and small. In my past several positions, this passion has dovetailed with an interest in security which goes back to my first summer job as a security guard at a chemical factory in Northern Michigan.In my inbound product management roles, I have been responsible for product definition, managing product roadmaps, determining product features and crafting user stories. On the outbound side, I have considerable experience helping with the creation of collateral and sales enablement materials, dealer playbooks, e-marketing content, and webinars I have directly managed product management teams, as well as documentation writers, QA, and offshore development teams.In my various roles, I have also worked with creative teams to develop product branding, print advertising, direct mail campaigns, and corporate websites, I've implemented trade show strategies, presented to senior decision makers of major corporations, and acted as a company spokesman for press and television.When I’m not working with great teams to create world-changing products, I enjoy exploring the Santa Cruz mountains on my Kawasaki Versys. I like watching college football, particularly the Purdue Boilermakers (where my oldest son graduated from the Industrial Engineering program), Arizona State University Sun Devils (where my youngest son attends Business School), and my beloved Michigan Wolverines. Go Blue!
