What continues to make your work at Smartstream meaningful for you?
"At the end of each day, I reflect on progress and plan for what’s next. Did we unblock a team? Validate a new idea? Improve something for our users? The work is always grounded in real data and shaped by real needs — and that connection between insight, action, and user value is what keeps it meaningful. What makes product management exciting is the constant blend of execution and innovation. Every decision, every iteration, is an opportunity to make things clearer, faster, and
smarter for the people who rely on our platform. That’s what drives me."
Morning: Routine
My day starts with a scan of platform metrics. It’s not just about the headline stats but spotting usage patterns that spark ideas. From there, I connect with the teams in our product and engineering stand- up. Today, we’re iterating on an AI-assisted ideas to streamline exception management and automate manual investigations. Innovation here is fast, grounded in real data, and shaped by real user needs.

Lunch
Lunch is an opportunity to catch up with colleagues across product, data, and engineering. What's going on with them, what's new, what's exciting? Today’s conversation led to a new concept: using generative AI to guide users through workflows with contextual prompts and plain-language explanations. These moments of informal collaboration often lead to our most impactful ideas.

Afternoon: Strategy Meets Systems Thinking
Afternoons are for connecting with clients and deep dives into architectural decisions, strategic alignment, and discovery. Whether it’s scalability options, or exploring observability tools to enhance transparency, the goal is always the same: build resilient, user-centric systems. I have a client call focused on improving UX and system integration to meet their productivity targets. We explore data concepts, connectivity challenges, and discuss how to unlock some long-term bottlenecks. These
conversations are always high energy and exciting, and they directly shape our roadmap.
