I'm Canadian eh? <\/p>\nBonus points if you can name the famous actor who was born in Saint John. DM me!<\/p>\nMy professional info \n------------------------ \nMy journey into Product Management is as windy as the Pacific Coast Highway in California. Trained as an Electrical Engineer with entrepreneurial leanings, I spent ten years working in the fascinating field of electronics manufacturing. If you ever get the chance to work in an industry in or related to supply chain management, seize the opportunity! <\/p>\nFun fact: For my undergrad thesis, I built an application on my Windows 95 PC that identified the spoken identity of a speaker. Cutting edge stuff in 1996 that got picked up by a graduate student for further R&D.<\/p>\nI had the fortune of starting in test engineering working on huge server circuit boards that power the internet and manufacturing data collection software and infrastructure, I wrangled profit and loss statements and financial models in global pricing, earned new business in business development, overhauled enterprise sales responses to a branded, value based methodology supported by a new store of organizational knowledge, and got to learn and work on many rapid fire corporate strategy projects.<\/p>\nI landed next at American Express in Toronto as a lead in field sales strategy and effective in corporate card. My main goal - help sales find $$. I had five direct reports, built a share of wallet strategy and analytics engine, piloted and launched a win-loss analysis program, and had the privilege of participating in Amex's year long business school program at York University and group project in Brand Investment.<\/p>\nAs a good leader does, mine encouraged me to move into a new role to continue to develop professionally. In Amex's acquiring and processing group as a payments consultant I cut my teeth and learned how payments work. I supported 1300+ merchants across Canada in every vertical including transit, oil & gas, retail, travel, and even dating (Plenty of Fish was an account). I lived through the transition to chip and contactless payments, worked on a special project to fix how merchants got paid, and helped a major travel company take their corporate travel business to the next level with enriched travel data.<\/p>\nCalifornia dreaming, i.e. escaping the Arctic Vortex, brought me to Visa as a product manager for Visa Checkout. I learned a lot about being hands on, earning a team's trust, and that the Triad is a force to be reckoned with! While a new job, new city, new country, and new mega commute wasn't enough I completed a MSc in E-Commerce Technology focusing on product management, design, and e-commerce. This degree was an absolute joy to complete and I miss being in the program.<\/p>\nAnd finally before arriving at Automattic, I rounded out my breadth of exposure with Cybersource \/ Authorize.net. There I got to work on all of the things after a product build that can make or break a business such as training, documentation, service level agreements, customer contracts, incident management, and overall go-to-market.<\/p>\nMy fun personal interests \n------------------------------ \nFine and Culinary Arts - Coffee Roasting, Photography, Cheese and Wine Tasting, Live Music, Films and Documentaries, Vinyl Records, Occasional Video Gamer (PS5)<\/p>\nSports and Outdoors - Hiking, Skiing, Mountain Biking, Rock Climbing, Traveling, Inline Skating, Martial Arts, Latin Dancing, Gardening, Urban Exploration<\/p>\nOther - Airbnb Hosting, Volunteering, Perpetual Learner, Wearer of Fun Socks, Six Flags Season Ticket Holder<\/p>\n","image":"https:\/\/0.gravatar.com\/avatar\/99d5b4fce9b5ce0b0e5f9905c3ad360a3e92f1c080c5df7a10e5deafdd7a0dd3","latitude":37.8043637,"longitude":-122.2711137},{"name":"Josh Smith","role":"Akisbot Wrangler","bio":"","image":"https:\/\/1.gravatar.com\/avatar\/df82e127ea8fbec6a0337f5ffeb1cfc7a29f038dda168771423ecadc2d763a96","latitude":27.6648274,"longitude":-81.5157535},{"name":"Peter Rubin","role":"Head of Publishing","bio":"Hoosier by birth, New Yorker by osmosis, storyteller by trade.

Now I work for the Special Projects Team as a Technical Account Manager<\/p>\n","image":"https:\/\/2.gravatar.com\/avatar\/5e290bf756939b9f6a52a50484593325bc384dec7908067a1832860db965b4e7","latitude":38.9716689,"longitude":-95.2352501},{"name":"Walt Howd","role":"VIP Systems Engineer","bio":"","image":"https:\/\/0.gravatar.com\/avatar\/c3fe8b72fa7e097ddc11e81998c5309768ff5a49662be8ef74578ab0df3b0afa","latitude":37.9642529,"longitude":-91.8318334},{"name":"Joshua Thompson","role":"Technical Account Manager","bio":"","image":"https:\/\/0.gravatar.com\/avatar\/6916b5cb6ca262c313a91e1fa888a1783d48e5153c7bc387768d017c06722d6b","latitude":37.0870821,"longitude":-76.4730122},{"name":"","role":"Human Resources Wrangler","bio":"","image":"https:\/\/0.gravatar.com\/avatar\/9f3d4f181b9b6232bc277a445a462abcfb905b6495887679864a297b16ada1df?s=200&d=","latitude":-1.1748105,"longitude":36.8304102},{"name":"Warren Holmes","role":"Product Lead for WooCommerce","bio":"","image":"https:\/\/1.gravatar.com\/avatar\/a6a6c2cd8048d22e88e32f70b597af5635c99ea41893828774931efcfa237d82","latitude":-33.3270001,"longitude":115.6408421},{"name":"Jaclyn Chen","role":"Mobile Wrangler","bio":"","image":"https:\/\/1.gravatar.com\/avatar\/13dafa65237ffe03dac8e8eb3a408a68e2ea6f1569470aa0b40992ef29d23e08","latitude":25.0329636,"longitude":121.5654268},{"name":"Whitney Dominiack","role":"Procurement","bio":"","image":"https:\/\/2.gravatar.com\/avatar\/8b5b98a0d0d310a1344880278c392cfbcc07d10c772e93e48ce2c480331c32f0","latitude":45.6387281,"longitude":-122.6614861},{"name":"Web Griebel","role":"Head of Payment Partnerships & Business Development, WooCommerce","bio":"Payment Partnerships & BD - WooCommerce<\/p>\n","image":"https:\/\/0.gravatar.com\/avatar\/0c777245612fc5e7a9e95bb4319d2d8b1d7d19c9a81c4909284eb18d3581a4d8","latitude":38.984652,"longitude":-77.0947092},{"name":"Ryan Welcher","role":"Developer Relations Advocate","bio":"","image":"https:\/\/0.gravatar.com\/avatar\/f34958374f72e0e576454ecbbd477b56e86534f8777fd306fbf165e94d9f8d38","latitude":45.0389565,"longitude":-79.3078787},{"name":"","role":"Mobile Engineer","bio":"","image":"https:\/\/0.gravatar.com\/avatar\/9f3d4f181b9b6232bc277a445a462abcfb905b6495887679864a297b16ada1df?s=200&d=","latitude":-18.512178,"longitude":-44.5550308},{"name":"Welly Shen","role":"JavaScript Engineer","bio":"","image":"https:\/\/0.gravatar.com\/avatar\/c3bb8d897bb538896708195dd9eb162f585654611c50a3a1c9a16a7b64f33270","latitude":25.0329636,"longitude":121.5654268},{"name":"Wesley Rosa","role":"Code Wrangler","bio":"Brazilian guy from S\u00e3o Paulo who was passionate about coding before knowing what it was.
