A track record of building products and leading teams

November 2024 — Present

Columbus, Ohio

Advisory Product Manager | IBM Power

IBM

  • Led the global launch of Power11, IBM's flagship server platform — authored the category frame (agentic IT, operational resilience, AI-ready infrastructure), validated it with industry analysts, and sequenced cross-workstream dependencies across 6 product teams and every global geography to deliver GA on schedule in July 2026.
  • Designed and rolled out the operating model the Power outbound organization now runs on — an internal product that replaced ad-hoc content production with a vehicle-first pipeline, giving leadership a single view of launch readiness.
  • Act as launch quarterback for the Outbound Product Management team — setting craft standards, running the review cadence, and mentoring 10+ product managers across product, sales, and partner functions without formal reporting authority.
  • Serve as the AI subject-matter translator for the portfolio — turning agentic systems, RAG, security, and governance capabilities into guidance sellers, partners, and executives can act on across 10+ global events, driving $100M+ in pipeline across 27 engagements.
