In this role

Alongside Pivotal, I taught the 10-week Product Management course and monthly Agile workshops at General Assembly Atlanta. More than 150 aspiring PMs came through, many from non-technical backgrounds.

The part I loved most was watching someone walk out empowered who had walked in intimidated. The 9.5/10 student rating mattered less to me than the notes I still get years later.
