Hi! My name is Kathy. I’m from Alaska, and I’m a product manager in San Francisco. I believe all great products are a result of effort that starts with a conversation. I've taken products from early prototypes to launch day consistently for the past 10 years. Through my successes (and failures) I've developed a philosophy about the path we take to make products that shine. My process thrives on the delicate dance between data driven design, business goals, and user feedback. I've worked with a lot of great people through the years. Now I work at Google where I'm building AI powered DevEx with the Labs team. Say hi 👍 😎.

- Seek out failure, it teaches us to think like a scientist. If you start with a hypothesis, then try to prove yourself wrong, you’re bound to make much better decisions. You have to be willing to fail, and that in itself is going to help you build confidence and be more convicted about what your strategy is in the end.4
- There are hundreds of methods for building products and running teams. As a quality PM, it's important to have an open mind about all of it, but finding your own process and philosophy can be grounding. It helps you find your pillars so that you don't smash into things while you're building. Remember, however, that you can always find a budget for remodeling. 😉5
- The beauty of a good process is when it just becomes how you do your work. When you forget you're following a process at all is when you know the process is working for you, your team, your company, and your customers.
