About
Product leader with 10+ years building B2C mobile products across sports, media, and betting. Most recently ran product for ESPN BET and the theScore ↔ ESPN ecosystem; before that, helped scale theScore from a 4M+ MAU sports app through its $186M IPO and $2B acquisition by PENN. I lead PM teams of 5–20, work cross-functionally by default, and care most about getting everyone pointed at the same goal — across discovery, launch, growth, and monetization.
What I'm looking for
- A senior product leadership role (Director / VP / Head of Product) where I own strategy end-to-end and build the team that ships it.
- Open to new industries and product types — the operating model travels.
- Most energized by ambiguous 0→1 and 1→n problems where product, data, and AI intersect.
