💼 Past Experience
I have worked in marketing, product management, customer service, and engineering. My work experience with Adobe Systems tells me that I am knowledgeable in both strategy and execution. In my role as the Vice President Marketing at Honeycomb.io, I was responsible for developing and managing the company’s Creative Cloud offerings, which transformed the creative workflow through mobile apps and cloud services. I also led the execution of Adobe’s Creative Cloud offering, which earned them a total of $1.9 billion in2007. In my previous job, as the Product Manager at Xamarin, I was responsible for driving a new worldwide business model strategy for creative products. The success of this strategy earned me the title of Group/Principal Product Manager, Business Innovation Grp at Adobe Systems. In my previous job, as the Strategic Product Manager for the Macromedia tool line, I was responsible for developing a new product lineup that led to the largest release in Adobe’s history, earning $1.9 billion in 2007. My previous job also happened to be the time to market for the largest financing round in Adobe’s history. Additionally, I was appointed the leader of a growth v-team that was responsible for driving 65% YOY growth across the Visual Studio family. Finally, I’m responsible for leading the product marketing and growth initiatives for Appcelerator. Appcelerator is a mobile application development platform that enables developers to build mobile apps in Javascript. As a result of these experiences, I’ve developed the skills and knowledge necessary to lead a product marketing team that is driving 65% YOY growth across the Visual Studio family.
