EXPERIENCE & PRODUCT EXECUTIVE

Hi, I’m Dave. I lead product and experience work, and I’m happiest where strategy, technology, and creativity overlap.

Most of my career has been spent leading cross-functional teams and getting people who don’t usually talk to each other into the same room. What came out of that ranges from AI platforms worth millions in enterprise value to digital experiences used by millions of people.

A couple of examples. I launched a robo-advisor for a financial company that’s been around for more than a century. It now manages over $500B in consumer assets. More recently, I built a GenAI tool that helps optimize $2.6B in marketing spend. I led both the same way, with empathy, curiosity, and close attention to detail.

People have called me a polymath. I’ll take it. I go deep, learn fast, and tend to spot connections other people miss. That’s taken me to some unexpected places. I’ve marketed biotech in China, won an Emmy and a Cannes Lion, and fine-tuned generative AI models at scale.

I’ve never seen creativity and practicality as rivals. My best work needed both.

I’ve been lucky to work for leaders who trusted me and treated me like a partner. I try to give my teams the same thing. Give good people room and they build big things.

Some colleagues call me “Wiki Dave.” Curious, collaborative, calm under pressure. I like that. I’d add one thing: I care, and it shows in the work.

Humor helps...
So does experience.

If you’ve got a hard problem or something new to build, I’m ready to dig in. Happy to talk AI, product, or whatever idea you’re chewing on.

I’m all in...
