What I’m great at

When strategy is based on knowing and solving users’ problems, and your team is pulling in the same direction, competition is irrelevant.

Product perfection takes a lot of time, but product improvements can happen very fast–and experience has made me very fast.

If the strongest voices in your organization aren’t in synch, there’s no way your teams can produce great products. I specialize in helping honchos and stakeholders re-focus on the wants and needs of users and customers.

How I work

All projects start with a Quick Hit.

I can align your executives, design and run your strategic offsite, help you define a product roadmap, or enable you to create a category.
