About Miguel B.

I’m a seasoned product manager with expertise in interfacing with customers, analyzing business needs and bridging the gaps, creating valuable products from start to finish, being an in-person and virtual team leader, UX/product design, and valuing the opinion of others. In my career, I’ve worn many hats: training and web developer, marketing coordinator and developer, product developer, strategist, researcher, instructional designer, and project manager. I’ve worked with technology start-up companies as well as large corporations. As a result, I have a unique ability to speak geek, communicate with corporate customers, be a soothing voice to difficult stakeholders, and navigate complex challenges. If my left and right brain were hands, I’d be ambidextrous. I don’t care who receives credit; I’m concerned with providing valuable solutions. Saying, “This is how it has always been done” can lead to stagnation. Change doesn’t always mean reinventing the wheel; there are times it’s necessary, but in knowing the difference rests a competitive advantage. I love making new professional acquaintances. Reach out if you want and we can discuss products we’re working on, technology advances and the march towards technological singularity, ideas for design, barbequing, or all things sports related. Specialties: Synthesizing elaborate materials, agile & scrum methodologies, creating/updating product roadmap, communications, relationship management, executing in ambiguous situations, training and employee development, project management, competitive intelligence, market research, product management & development, flexibility and multitasking.
