We had our first AI Hackathon in New York this week, and to make sure the participants had proper guidance, I built a hackathon guide that gave step by step guidance to get their product idea up and running in the various AI code tools. In the spirit of hacking with AI, I built the… Continue reading

I had the opportunity to host a lightning talk on Maven with Colin Matthews where we covered how Product Managers can use AI prototyping in their day to day workflow. Over 3,000 folks attended! We covered: practical use cases for prototyping, how they can enable better communication, and tricks & tips for the best results.
User research will need to adapt, and fast. But those who adapt will have an unfair advantage. Up until now, a core value of research has been to de-risk software development. When building is expensive, mistakes are costly, especially when they’re caught late. Getting smart up front via research leads to fewer mistakes down the… Continue reading
The newest AI coding tools for prototyping can be an amazing addition to your workflow. But like any tooling, they each have strengths and weaknesses. This is a breakdown of what I have found so far. Note: This is the state of play today – these tools are changing at light-speed so this will likely… Continue reading

Back in my early days of UX interaction design work, I contracted for a small, e-commerce focused agency called Epicenter Consulting. While I spent most of my time on client work, they had a side project they were building to help better present their designs to clients. That side project ended up becoming InVision (RIP)….

The progress made on AI coding tools has been absolutely wild. I’m not a developer – I can get around a bit in HTML and CSS but definitely couldn’t reasonably market my skills as a front end engineer. However, like many product and design folks, I’ve had many ideas I wanted to try over the… Continue reading
Powerpoint is proof that product distribution can be just as important as product quality, maybe more so. Powerpoint is a wildly inferior product – its fucking maddening and I hate using it. It’s worst in its class. Literally every one of these presentation products is better than Powerpoint: But I still use it, regularly. I… Continue reading
