Working with me

Summary

  • I care about impact over activity. I focus on moving metrics, solve customer needs, and learning forward

  • I’m independent and fast-moving. I do my best work when I have autonomy and clear goals

  • I’m direct and pragmatic. I value clarity and honesty

  • I get energized by solving messy problems and pushing us forward, less by maintaining the status quo

  • I like to be helpful and impactful. I’m proactive about solving things that are messy

My strengths

  • Turning ambiguity into clear direction

  • Connecting product decisions to business outcomes

  • Seeing both short-term execution and long-term strategy

  • Challenging assumptions and pushing for better solutions

  • Connecting the dots between multiple areas

Things to know

  • I can start too many initiatives when I’m excited about ideas - prioritization is something I actively work on

  • I can get frustrated by slow processes or unnecessary complexity

  • My communication is very direct. If I ever sound blunt, it’s usually about speed and clarity, not intent

  • Too much structure or micromanagement drains my energy quickly

How I work best

  • Clear goals + autonomy on how to get there

  • Fast iteration cycles and shipping frequently

  • Working through problems collaboratively - talking it out helps me think

  • Teams that are comfortable challenging ideas (including mine)

De-motivators
