“I worked with Brian for 3 years, and he’s an exemplary PM. He planned comprehensive roadmaps, wrote compelling product briefs, and managed happy, productive, and collaborative teams. And since I was his data scientist I care about this especially: he consistently used data well in planning and to improve features.”
— Senior Data Scientist, Greenhouse

He was an effective guide and collaborator on design research, and organized efficient design sprints that improved the experience for our users.”

“He owned and led a redesign for a group sales ticketing website that included an intense discovery phase, a workshop, and a multi-phased design release… Brian was a true product owner during our project, knowing the requirements inside and out.”
