I turn customer evidence into products that grow.

I'm Allan—a product manager who finds valuable problems, aligns teams around the right bets, and owns the work through measurable outcomes.

Selected work

Product judgment, made visible.

A portfolio should show more than what shipped. These are the problems I owned, the decisions I made, and the value that followed.

01

0→1 product portfolio

Finding—and scaling—valuable market opportunities.

Up to 40%above first-quarter revenue forecast
Problem

New small-business markets looked promising, but demand alone was not enough. Every bet also had to work for underwriting, acquisition, operations, and distribution.

Ownership

Owned product and GTM strategy from opportunity assessment through launch and iteration, aligning underwriting, engineering, marketing, sales, partnerships, operations, and support.

Decision

Validated demand, differentiation, acquisition viability, and underwriting fit before development—then scoped the smallest coherent product around the highest-confidence assumptions.

Outcome

Launched 10+ products, cut average time to market 24%, and saw top performers beat first-quarter revenue forecasts by up to 40%.

02

Customer journey

Making a complex insurance application feel simpler.

+28%application completion
Problem

Eligibility and underwriting requirements created a high-friction quote journey. The experience had to become easier without weakening business or compliance needs.

Ownership

Led the cross-functional redesign of eligibility rules, questions, conditional logic, quote workflows, underwriting handoffs, user stories, and acceptance criteria.

Decision

Organized the experience around conditional logic and aligned questions to customer and business needs while preserving the information required downstream.

Outcome

Increased application completion 28%. Across related quote-flow work, increased quote completion 19% and quote-to-bind conversion 14%.

03

Product operating system

Turning scattered signals into stronger product decisions.

42% → 81%evidence-backed decisions
Problem

Roadmap inputs were fragmented, planning was slow, and only 46% of launches had defined success metrics. Teams needed shared evidence, not more artifacts.

Ownership

Built AI-assisted insight and planning systems spanning interviews, behavioral data, support issues, sales feedback, market research, and underwriting insights.

Decision

Connected evidence to opportunity-solution trees, priorities, outcomes, and measurement—using AI for synthesis and routine work while keeping judgment human.

Outcome

Raised launches with success metrics from 46% to 94%, reduced roadmap preparation 35%, and automated 60% of recurring progress updates.

How I work

Outcomes over output. Learning over certainty.

Influenced by Marty Cagan's empowered-team thinking and Teresa Torres's continuous-discovery habits—applied pragmatically to the people, constraints, and opportunity in front of us.

01

Start with the outcome

Define the customer change, business result, leading signals, and guardrails before debating features.

02

Stay close to evidence

Triangulate interviews, behavior, support, sales, market, and operational data through continuous discovery.

03

De-risk the bet

Test value, usability, feasibility, and viability at the cheapest responsible point—then learn in small releases.

04

Give teams context

Bring technical and domain experts into discovery early, make tradeoffs visible, and align around the why.

AI, used intentionallyI use AI to accelerate synthesis, prototyping, and routine reporting—not to outsource product judgment or customer understanding.

About me

Growth-shaped.
Operator-minded.
Product-led.

I learned product from the numbers backward.

My path into product began in growth and customer experience, where every decision met real user behavior and a number that moved—or didn't. In insurtech, I expanded that lens across strategy, underwriting, engineering, operations, and go-to-market.

Today, I'm especially useful when the inputs are messy, the stakeholders are many, and a team needs a clear decision, a shared outcome, and a practical path forward.
