ABout Me
As the former VP of Product at Netflix, Chief Product Officer at Chegg, SVP Product at The Learning Company, and a Producer at Electronic Arts, I have lots of experience building world-class products, teams, and companies.
Today, I am an adviser to consumer tech product leaders in San Francisco, Boston, NYC, and Salt Lake City. I also teach a graduate-level entrepreneurship course at Stanford.
Every six months I co-host an invite-only 130-person Product Leader Summit. These one day product events alternate between Redwood City, CA and NYC.
My wife, Kristen Hege, is a physician/scientist working to cure cancer, my daughter Kelsey, lives in Boston (and follows Mom's career path) while daughter Brit, a senior at Colby College, has career aspirations more like mine. (Read more about Brit here.)
