Hi, I am Alex, pleasure to meet you!

I am a product and strategy expert and startup veteran based in the Georgian Bay Area in Ontario, Canada.

I have been in tech and product management for over two decades, and helped many founders and CEOs to start, grow, and scale their companies.

I specialize in product management, strategy, and team leadership. My expertise lies in guiding startups and established companies through growth and innovation, working closely with founders, CEOs and boards to ensure they meet their strategic goals.

I have introduced new products from conception to launch, hired and mentored world-class product and design teams, and navigated companies across various industries through rapid growth, strategy pivots, and post-merger integrations.

Many of the typical startup challenges and growing pains I have seen from the inside, offering a broad range of experience from shaping high-level product strategy to setting up agile development processes across product, design and engineering to coaching new product managers or product leaders.

Passionate about mentoring, I am grateful for having gained a wealth of experience from working with global B2B and B2C tech ventures across North America and Europe.

Innovation is not about saying yes to everything. It’s about saying NO to all but the most crucial features.
— Steve Jobs
