About Natasha W.

Once I saw how an idea evolves from a mere concept to global marketplace-ready in the nonprofit and government sectors, I was curious about the product track. Encouraged by an IBM recruiter during my MBA program, I completed IBM’s Extreme Blue Internship Program. This propelled me toward a career in product leadership, where I earned a reputation for complex problem solving, strategic execution, and empathetic team leadership.Research & Data Analysis: Leveraging an academic background in business analytics, e-Commerce, and communication, I face KPI issues and process gaps the same way I’d approach a research paper, sourcing, citing, and presenting up-to-date information.Creative Problem Solving: From developing initial GTM strategy, liaising between cross-functional or global teams, or aligning current product features with changing customer needs and product enhancement, I have an unmatched ability to spot and act on previously overlooked connections.Strategic Decision Making: I am a natural leader who prides herself on identifying and developing team members’ natural talents. By considering a situation from every angle and maintaining focus on knowledge sharing and continuous coaching, I drive balanced decision making at every organizational level. In addition to the professional leadership accomplishments detailed below, I have also: Mentored military veterans in the USC MBA program to win their cohort case competition 2 years in a row. Inspired a coworker to apply to USC and provided encouragement through the successful completion of her doctoral program. Set foot on all 7 continents.If you are searching for a dynamic full-time worker, I would welcome the opportunity to connect with you.
