"My arrival at product management involves some elements that feel like fate and others that feel like luck. My grandfather helped build the JOHNNIAC, one of the first computers, which sparked my interest in programming at a young age. However, I quickly realized in college that while I had a base understanding, the deep technical aspects of programming weren’t my forte or passion. I pivoted to economics, where I discovered a more fitting career path."
"Product development differs significantly between a loss-averse environment like insurance tech and a gain-seeking one like Silicon Valley. In loss-averse sectors, decisions are often more cautious, focusing on minimizing risk rather than exploring new opportunities. This influences everything from innovation speed to stakeholder engagement, making it crucial for product managers to adapt their strategies accordingly and understand the unique dynamics of their industry's regulatory landscape."
