Senior product leader (CPO / VP / Head of Product) in consumer digital products, mostly at well-known news and media brands. Started as an engineer and still code, so I lead product, design, and engineering together rather than handing off between them.
- Zero-to-one: founding product lead on two digital publications, one scaled to millions of monthly readers within its first year
- Growth and monetization: built metering, registration, and paywall systems; led a replatform that drove large year-over-year gains in visitors and subscriptions
- Multi-brand platforms: frontend, UX, and ad product across dozens of sites on shared infrastructure
- Applied AI in production: narration, translation, classification, and editorial tooling shipped to real readers
- Award-winning product and design work, including a National Magazine Award, Webbys
Looking for: senior product leadership with real strategic scope, ideally early-stage or in ambiguous territory. Particularly interested in media, content, consumer, and applied AI products. Also open to CTO roles at smaller companies, where the product + engineering + design combination matters most.
Currently employed, so discretion appreciated. I'm happy to share my full background by email.
