I'm someone uniquely trained to solve the hardest product problems.

Alyssa Headshot

Most product people understand one piece of the puzzle. I was educated to understand all of them: human behavior (psychology minor), user experience (cross-functional design degree), technical constraints (extensive development training), and business outcomes (MBA). This isn't accidental. I specifically sought training across every domain that affects product decisions because I believe the best solutions happen when you understand the whole system.

  • Design Foundation
    Cross-functional design degree from one of the world's top design programs (DAAP, University of Cincinnati) covering print, motion, and interactive design. Trained to think in systems, create meaningful experiences, and solve complex visual problems.
  • Human Behavior
    Psychology minor focused on human behavior. I understand why people actually do things, not just what they say they'll do.
  • Technical Depth
    Technical background spanning web development to AI agent development. I build my own prototypes and operational tooling, and have hands-on experience tuning AI systems in work. I understand what's realistic to implement and whats going to be complex.
  • Business Strategy
    MBA focused on translating insights into commercial outcomes. I understand metrics, market dynamics, and what moves the business forward.
  • Proven Experience
    Years of hands-on work across product strategy, go-to-market execution, and design systems. I don&apsost just theorize—I execute.

How I Work

  • Pattern recognition — I see connections others miss because I understand all the variables
  • Systems thinking — I was trained to solve problems holistically, not in silos
  • Human-centered — Every decision starts with understanding actual user behavior
  • Technically grounded — I know what's possible and what's realistic to build
  • Business accountable — Everything connects back to outcomes that matter

What This Means For You

When I diagnose what's stuck, I'm not guessing. I understand the psychology of why users behave the way they do, the technical constraints that shape what's possible, the design principles that create good experiences, and the business dynamics that determine success.

Most consultants bring one perspective. I bring all of them.
