SAAS & AI PRODUCT LEADERSHIP
Hands-on across discovery, delivery,
and bringing the product to market.
I lead customer interviews to understand workflows, uncover unmet needs, and bring direct customer feedback into product decisions.
I own roadmap direction and prioritization, connecting customer needs with product strategy and the work required to launch.
I run product demos that connect software capabilities to real customer problems—and bring what I learn back into the roadmap.
I shape go-to-market strategy and lead SaaS and AI software launches, connecting the product story with the customers it serves.
02 — HOW I THINK
I stay close to the customer, the product, and the launch.
My career has connected measurement with action—from brand analytics and custom attribution to product leadership and agentic AI. Today, I’m VP of Analytics & Product at Elite Media Group and a cofounder of Orbit Technologies Group.
My role is hands-on: interviewing customers, leading the roadmap, running product demos, and shaping go-to-market strategy. I connect what customers need with what we build and how we bring it to market.
