Take a walk down memory lane

After spending the last 6 years working closely with 6 and 7 figure online business owners and traveling the world, I’m ready to nestle into my home base of sunny Florida and help shape products that make this lifestyle possible.

4 years nomadic 15 countries 6+ years with founders CareerFoundry certified

One thing I pride myself in is being the rock for my clients and the companies I work with. Every company needs ‘that person’ that people can go to if they need something. Communication, organization, and an empathetic + persuasive approach paves the foundation of how I work and manage teams. Combine that with my 6 years of working closely with founders, you’ll have a genuine partner who wants to see your company, customers, and product succeed.

Case study: Sync

Product Management Case Study · 3 Month Engagement

Adapting Sync To A New Wave Of Users

Sync is a B2B video conferencing platform. Before 2020, its users were mostly corporate teams at tech savvy companies. When the pandemic hit, Sync saw a sudden wave of academic and government users who needed proof the platform could meet strict security and compliance standards, right as the team was mid build on new video effects and chat features.

I wrote the PRD, ran user research across both new and existing client groups, and prioritized a security focused roadmap (real time alerts, multi factor authentication, compliance features) against an impact versus effort framework.

What people say

Alex hopped right into my business with the same initiative, care, and ambition I have. She’s constantly wondering how to make things better and how to make my life easier. She doesn’t just check a box and call it done. She researches, optimizes, and brings solutions I didn’t even know I needed.

ASHLI POLLARD Founder

Alex has been the best VA and OBM I’ve ever had. I took a month off and left her to run the show, completely comfortable after just a couple months of working together. Before her, I felt stuck under everything I needed to do. She cleaned it up, automated what I didn’t know could be automated, and made my chaotic systems searchable and adjustable.
