Hi, and welcome to Technology Poet. You’ve stumbled on my tiny corner of the Internet. I occasionally share my thoughts here on technology, WordPress and the technology industry.
One of my greatest joys is to help others in their career in the technology industry. I have over 18 years Product Management experience between Microsoft and Google. If you’re looking for a Product Management career coach or advice landing your first product management job please get in touch.
My other passion is WordPress, and in particular making WordPress websites fly. If you’re looking for help improving the performance of your WordPress website please reach out.
