Product Management Coaches, Events, and Resources

I have worked in PM at King (Candy Crush) and Blizzard, both on live and new games. I was responsible for MBA hiring at Activision Blizzard, both for the internship and FT program (both are heavily focused on product management). In addition to conducting interviews, I was responsible for developing standards for case and behavioral interviews used by other interviewers. I would love to help you prepare for your interview!

I’ve coached over 100 MBA students into product management roles at Google, Microsoft, Adobe, and more over the past five years. I currently lead go-to-market for Jira Product Discovery at Atlassian, a product built for PMs. In scaling it, I’ve spoken with hundreds of product managers across industries and company stages. I know what it takes to break in—and what the job actually looks like once you land it.

Seasoned product thinker with several years of experience in Big Tech across Meta and Uber. Prior to working in Big Tech, I was a VC investor where I advised portfolio companies, which were primarily made up of early stage tech startups, on product vision and achieving product market fit to help many of them go from linear to exponential growth.

Breaking into product management without a traditional tech background is tough. After eight years as a U.S. Army Black Hawk pilot, I went to MIT Sloan knowing I wanted to pivot into PM but having no connections in tech and no clear path to get there. I spent months learning frameworks, building side projects, and figuring out how to translate military leadership into language that resonated with tech hiring managers. I applied to well over 100 roles and collected plenty of rejections along the way before eventually landing a Product Manager role at Microsoft. That experience gave me a very practical understanding of what it actually takes to break in. I know which parts of a non-traditional background hiring managers care about and which ones they don't. I know how to reframe military, consulting, or other non-tech experience into a compelling PM narrative. And I know how to stay focused when the process feels like it's going nowhere. I work with career changers, veterans, and other non-traditional candidates on the full PM job search: resume positioning, networking strategy, building PM-relevant work, product sense and execution interview prep, and offer negotiation. If you're trying to break into PM and feel like your background doesn't check the usual boxes, I can help you figure out how to make it work.
