Before earning a promotion to Manager of the Product team, I served the organization as a Product Manager. As such, I was the product owner for a myriad of products - most notably a series of pharmacy solutions geared towards serving the needs of our self-funded clients and plan members. I also launched and owned a suite of COBRA Administration products through a vendor partnership. Through the product ownership described above, I was able to have a direct - and positive - impact on grater than 60% of our clients, by ensuring that these solutions were meeting their dynamic needs. In addition to product ownership, I had the opportunity to partake in a focused organic growth initiative, represent my company at industry conferences (SIIA), and add overall strategic insight towards shaping our path as an organization.
