Product Management Coaches, Events, and Resources

I started my career by creating the innovative PowerPod cases, successfully funded on Kickstarter. Through this venture, I learned the intricacies of product development and entrepreneurship.

I’m uniquely qualified to coach non-traditional product managers because I’ve lived the path myself. I graduated with a degree in International Affairs, with no product management internships and no traditional PM background. My early experience came from tech sales internships, yet I still landed a role in an Associate Product Management program by leveraging storytelling, positioning, and transferable skills rather than a “perfect” resume. Today, I help non-traditional candidates, career 'switchers', and tech enthusisasts do the same. I work with clients to reframe their background as an asset, not a liability, so they feel empowered rather than discouraged by their education or past experience. My goal is to help them pursue product management opportunities with confidence, clarity, and a compelling narrative, because there is more than one valid path into product and diverse experiences make better product leaders.

I bring 20+ years of experience with a robust blend of technical, strategic, and leadership expertise to my coaching practice. As a product management executive (VP), I did not take the traditional PM career path. Instead, I leveraged my diverse set of work experiences — spanning engineering, consulting, and product marketing — to showcase my unique strengths and stand out in a competitive field of more traditional PM candidates. Now, I’m here to help you do the same. I specialize in empowering senior leaders to accelerate their careers and achieve meaningful personal and professional growth. Through personalized coaching, I share the strategies and tactics that helped me break into product management, thrive as a leader, and ultimately reach the executive level. My extensive experience includes leadership roles at top companies such as Bill.com, Intuit, LinkedIn, and PayPal, where I honed my skills in product management, marketing, and customer experience. During my tenure at Bill.com as VP of Product Management, I helped drive the company’s revenue growth by over 10x to approximately $1B ARR. I hold an MBA from the Kellogg School of Management and a Bachelor of Applied Science in Computer Engineering from the University of Waterloo. Whether you’re aiming for your next promotion, planning a career change, or preparing for a leadership role, I’m here to help you unlock your full potential and stand out in your career journey.
