Product Management Coaches, Events, and Resources

I bring over a decade of product management experience at leading tech companies including Meta and Google, where I’ve driven global product launches and meaningful growth. Currently, I lead Meta’s Generative AI ad creative product, giving me firsthand insight into what it takes to build, grow, and succeed in today’s fast-moving tech industry. Beyond my PM career, I’ve coached 350+ candidates and helped many land roles at FAANG, top tech companies, and high-growth startups. Having personally navigated career transitions across consulting, startups, and Big Tech, I understand the challenges at every stage—and I’m passionate about helping others break into tech or accelerate their path to leadership.

James is a former L6 Senior Product Manager (AI/ML) with Amazon. His unique value add is that he successfully pivoted from Pre-sales -> Management Consulting -> Product Management. Therefore, he specializes in helping people cross over into Product from other fields (including Consulting, Sales, Engineering, Program, Marketing, Legal, Support, and Operations). He's interviewed 75+ PM candidates while with Amazon (bar raiser), been the hiring manager for 3 positions, 1:1 mentored 10+ PM's, and has coached over 100+ people. He finds joy in helping others crack their PM/consulting interviews and has had 5+ mentees land offers at FAANG companies in the last few months.

My background includes pivotal roles at renowned companies such as Discord, Uber Eats, and Facebook, equipping me with a profound comprehension of product management success strategies. Throughout my career, I have coached and mentored ~20 individuals, helping them navigate the complexities of product management and achieve their career goals. My focus is on empowering you, whether you're aspiring to enter this exciting field or aiming to enhance your existing skills. Through personalized advice and steadfast support, I am committed to helping you navigate the nuances of product management and reach your professional milestones.

Breaking into Product Management from a non-traditional background? I’ve been there. Coming from architecture and design, I successfully transitioned into tech by leveraging my unique skill set, launching side projects, and crafting a compelling personal narrative. I even gave a TEDx talk on unconventional pathfinding, sharing strategies for bold career moves. Now, I help others do the same—not just landing their first PM role, but excelling in it once they’re there. As a PM intern and now full-fledged Product Manager, I specialize in guiding entry-level and early-career professionals through key career milestones—navigating salary negotiations, building strong 30-60-90 day plans, upleveling with your manager, and finding the right mentors. I also founded the first-ever Associate Product Manager accelerator program at Autodesk, supporting learning and development for APMs. Whether you need to refine your resume, sharpen your storytelling, or build the right experiences to stand out, I’ll help you navigate the path to tech with confidence. Your background is an asset—let’s make it work for you.

I’m a Senior Product Manager at Amazon with over a decade leading global B2C and B2B2C products across AI, computer vision, and connected devices. My background spans hardware, software, and autonomy—translating complex technology into simple, high-impact customer experiences. Beyond building products, I’ve coached 18 professionals through the challenges of product and technical program management, helping them sharpen strategic thinking, stakeholder influence, and delivery excellence. Whether you’re transitioning into product or scaling as a senior leader, I’ll help you turn potential into clear, measurable growth.

I spent four years as a Product Manager at Microsoft, where I not only grew within the company but also successfully switched roles internally—receiving two separate internal offers along the way. That experience taught me firsthand how to navigate large tech organizations, how to tell your story in a way that resonates, and how to position yourself for growth once you’re in the door. Beyond Microsoft, I’ve interviewed at and received offers from LinkedIn, Meta, and Capital One. Having gone through these processes myself, I understand the nuances of tech interviews—whether it’s product design, strategy, execution, or behavioral storytelling. I know what each company emphasizes and how to tailor your preparation without losing your authentic voice. As your coach, I’ll help you cut through the noise and focus on what matters: building confidence in your problem-solving, structuring strong answers, and connecting your experiences to what interviewers are really looking for. Whether you’re aiming for Big Tech, a high-growth company, or even an internal move, I can help you prepare with the clarity, precision, and mindset that lead to offers.
