I'm a Senior Product Manager with a passion for education technology, driven by a core belief that higher ed institutions need elegant solutions to their problems, and students deserve access to the tools and resources they need to achieve their academic and career goals. With over two decades of experience in higher ed, my journey began in the realm of federal financial aid, where I dedicated myself to helping students navigate the complexities of funding their education. This experience laid the foundation for my understanding of the critical intersection between education and career readiness.Transitioning into the edtech software provider space, I brought with me a desire to help institutions of higher ed leverage technology to meet their needs and the needs of their students. Recently my focus has centered around creating innovative products that not only enhance the learning experience but also help align students' journey through higher ed with their career aspirations. I aim to develop solutions that offer personalized guidance and support, ensuring students are equipped with the knowledge and skills needed for success in the workforce.In my current role, I lead cross-functional teams to ideate, design, and deploy software solutions that address the evolving needs of both students and institutions. I thrive on solving problems, and am constantly seeking out opportunities to improve our products and processes.I'm always eager to connect with like-minded professionals, educators, and innovators who share my passion for improving the educational landscape for the benefit of learner mobility.
