I am a software product manager with 10 years experience bringing software to market for the enterprise and consumer internet markets. I have managed the process from vision and roadmap, through product design and requirements, development and release, to final installation and support. I also have extensive experience in software product design. Earlier in my career, I was a management consultant specializing in business process analysis and implementation for large companies, including design and implementation of groupware and workflow tools. Most recently I have co-founded techTribe, a professional development and networking community in India, where I have managed product strategy and development.
Personally, I am married with two sons, and a rather large Portuguese family. For fun, I like reading, sailing, hiking in the mountains, woods, and at the beach, and basically anything that has to do with moving water.
