About

Professional Experience

I specialize in digital experiences and solutions, particularly, product management, ecommerce, search engine marketing & front-end development. I've contributed with product and development teams at Deseret Book, Deseret Management Corporation, Deseret News, KSL, Workfront, Ok.com and BYU-Idaho.

My areas of strength give me an in-depth understanding of product development, with all of its intricacies and challenges. That includes maintaining expectations, improving team efficiency, delivering on-time and staying within budget.
