Bio
As a seasoned product leader, I have a unique perspective on building products that are both technically sound and user-friendly. I am passionate about understanding user behavior and creating an optimized experience that eases pain points and brings joy. At the same time, I bring a data-driven approach to building products, using data and analytics to gain insights into user behavior and make informed decisions that drive growth.
My experience in web engineering has given me a strong foundation in problem-solving and attention to detail, which has been valuable in working collaboratively with cross-functional team members to develop requirements, visualizations, models, and prototypes. In addition to my technical expertise, I have extensive experience in data analytics, internet marketing, and conversion optimization. I use these skills to identify market opportunities, evaluate risks and trade-offs, and prioritize initiatives that align with the company's strategic goals.
I have also had the opportunity to mentor product managers and help them develop the skills and knowledge they need to succeed. This has allowed me to hone my leadership skills and gain a deeper understanding of the product development process.
By thinking through the entire customer journey, I am able to challenge assumptions and identify opportunities to improve the product experience. As a product leader, I am committed to using data and analytics to drive innovation and deliver products that exceed our customers' expectations.
“Mark is a Swiss army knife of awesomeness: one part product, one part data and one part engineer. He loved taking on sticky problems that few others could wrap their head around and not only sought to address the problem at hand, but build a better system to address the root cause.”
