I will start with best practices and build, optimize, and prove success using data collection and analysis.

I can fill gaps in an existing product team, but I'm also the only product and data team that a startup needs. I'll build out the team as you grow.

why hire me
I have over 5 years of experience as a product manager and over 10 years as a product analyst before that.
If you're looking for a product manager, you likely have a product or feature that needs to get out the door, or your product isn't working, or it's aging out of the marketplace. You might have had a previous product manager that failed to push things forward, got lost in feature prioritization, couldn't identify any opportunities, or was afraid of change.
I will advocate for a data-driven product that prioritizes the user experience. I will simultaneously push forward the company's initiatives, which often are conversion, engagement, and monetization. I will provide clear direction, user stories, and specifications for an accessible product that does the job, delights the user, and is competitive in the market.
I will work with the team to remove roadblocks and get stuff done like only a scrappy product manager can do.

I could always count on [Mark] to know exactly what was happening within the company, who was working on what, and where I could find what I needed. His background allowed us to do things I didn't think was going to be possible with the team and resources we had.

Mark is one of the brightest data guru's I have worked with. He is always willing to learn and try new ideas. Mark is a very good problem solver, in fact he is one of the best I have worked with at finding issues in the data stream, even if it did not fall within our arena of control.
