I lead teams and build products that people love.
Lead Product Manager, 8+ years across SaaS, AI, robotics and marketplaces. I prototype with AI before I write a ticket, so teams build the right thing the first time.
Go ahead, drag the stickers.
How I ship with AI
I use AI every day to test ideas, cut discovery time, and hand engineers something they can click on.
Prototype first, spec second
I turn a rough idea into a working prototype before writing a single ticket. Engineers react to something real, and requirements come out sharper.

An AI sales chatbot for a client
I built a working lead qualifying chatbot that emailed new leads straight to the sales team. The client loved it. Then I threw it away on purpose, because the prototype had done its job.

I built it on the Claude API with a serverless backend. It knows my career and books calls on my calendar. Ask it something tough.

Hi, I’m Ben!
I’m a Lead Product Manager who likes clarity, execution, and outcomes you can point to in a dashboard.
I started in marketing, which taught me how to understand customers and communicate value. Then I moved into product to actually build the thing.
I’ve shipped SaaS platforms, two sided marketplaces, and AI powered tools. I’ve worked with enterprise teams, truck drivers, and at least one robot with zero patience for bad UX.
I live in Philadelphia with my wife and kid. Time is limited. Standards are high.
How I work
- Start with the real problem, not the loudest feature request
- Use data to decide, not seniority or gut feelings
- Prototype fast with AI tools before writing a single spec
- Ship in small steps. Measure before celebrating.
Where I’ve shipped
Sports and gaming, freight, and creator marketplaces. Different customers, same job: find the real problem and ship the fix.

Writing
Notes on product management now that AI writes the first draft of everything.
I Built an AI Sales Chatbot Prototype and Threw It Away. The Client Loved It.
Marcus texted me at 8:14 am on a Wednesday: “Did you just email me about a lead?”
PM vs Engineer. Fight Canceled.
The old split of who decides and who builds stopped working once AI joined the team.
When Users Won’t Do What You Want, Blame the Product. Not the User.
Engagement goes up when you fix the product, not when you send another email.
Good News: The PM Role Is Not Dead. Bad News: Yours Might Be.
What the PM job looks like when anyone can ship a prototype in an afternoon.
Let’s build something that actually ships.
Hiring a PM who owns outcomes, prototypes before engineering starts, and backs decisions with data? Grab 30 minutes.
Rather ask a few questions first? The assistant in the corner knows my background and can book the call for you.
