Product management
Which problem, for whom, and why this answer instead of the three other ones. One fellowship, some product-shaped engineering work and a few small things built from scratch, each labeled for what it is.
Product experience
Product Management Fellow, Blueprint Rutgers
A fellowship covering product strategy, user research and MVP development, built around a live browser extension.
- Customer discovery interviews, market validation and usability testing for new product concepts (AI tools and campus infrastructure, among them).
- Scoped product requirements with cross-functional teams and prototyped solutions.
- Presented proposals and validation research to mentors and judges.
- Defined user flows, technical requirements and success metrics.
- Prioritized features with structured frameworks and worked through implementation trade-offs with engineering and design.
Product work in other roles
Software Developer, Camarès Inc.
The product-shaped part of an engineering job.
- Turn stakeholder requirements and operational problems into technical solutions across CRM, accounting, document management and automation.
- Prioritize enhancements with implementation teams and weigh technical trade-offs before building.
- User acceptance testing before deployment; documentation and training materials to support adoption.
- Prototype and evaluate AI agents and LLM workflows for customer support and operations.
UX content writer and social media manager, freelance
CTAs, captions, bios, posts and website copy for local businesses, in a consistent voice. Competitor reviews and content audits to decide what to write, A/B testing to check whether it worked, and microcopy, accessibility and clarity as the working rules.
Projects
Spend or Swipe
A checkout-page nudge: reads the order total, shows a risk level and recommendation, and offers a Strict Mode and a configurable hourly wage. A small product with a clear user moment and a deliberately narrow scope.
Punch In
Store owners sign in, set up their store once and keep a private customer list with a punch-card reward (default: eight punches). The README lists what is not built yet, which is the honest version of a roadmap.
Case studies
Case study: write-up comingPlaceholder
Full case studies get their own pages (add a route under src/pages/product/) once they are written.
