What I Do

Product leadership
across complex, high-stakes environments

From enterprise platform transformations at major financial institutions to cloud-scale products at Microsoft, I have built a career on translating complex business and technical requirements into products that deliver. I operate at the intersection of strategy, delivery, and execution, working with cross-functional teams to ship outcomes that matter.

01
Platform & Systems Ownership
Owning complex, multi-system platforms across enterprise environments. Driving adoption, performance, and measurable outcomes across integrated toolchains serving executives, operators, and end users.
02
Product Roadmap & Strategy
Partnering with business stakeholders and engineering leaders to align priorities, manage trade-offs, and ship features that move the needle. I keep teams outcome-focused through SAFe PI Planning cycles, clear backlogs, and decisions grounded in strategy not noise.
03
Agile Program Management
Coordinating 23+ product teams through SAFe and Scrum methodologies. Delivering cross-functional programs from inception through production. Fluent in ceremonies, metrics, and the art of keeping distributed teams aligned.
04
Enterprise Cloud Migration
Led on-prem to cloud migrations at OCC and Microsoft, coordinating engineers, designers, and QA across complex architecture transitions. Balancing technical debt reduction with continuous delivery commitments.
05
Stakeholder & Executive Reporting
Building executive dashboards and reporting frameworks that translate operational data into actionable insights. Experienced in presenting product outcomes, program performance, and strategic priorities to senior leadership and board-level stakeholders.
06
Startup Founding & Product Launch
Co-founded and led two ventures, including VoteGuard, an enterprise election intelligence platform deployed across three African general elections and successfully acquired before relocating to the United States.
