What I've Learned
For 20 years at companies like Spectrum, IQNavigator, and Arrow Electronics, I've lived through this transition. I've been the VP of Product trying to build systematic decision-making while preserving what actually creates customer value. I've seen what works when human insight needs to partner with AI capability, and what breaks when you try to scale too fast.
Why This Work
After two decades building enterprise platforms, I understand both the technical and human sides of systematic product leadership. Most growing companies are rebuilding things I've already built—and broken, and rebuilt better. I'd rather help them skip the expensive mistakes.
How I Work
I take on engagements where my platform-building experience creates the biggest impact: diagnostic work when teams feel stuck, foundational work when companies need systematic product leadership, and fractional partnerships when they need someone who's done this before to guide the transition.
Let's Talk
If you're ready to transform founder-led product decisions into systematic capability that scales, I'd be glad to explore how we might work together.
