Specialized in Productivity, Collaboration, Cloud, Security & Management of Devices & DocumentsFor the last 5 years at BlackBerry, I have primarily managed our award-winning Documents To Go solution that allows users to create, view and edit Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint files and attachments. This product is preloaded on all BlackBerry 10 handsets and PlayBook tablets as well as ships as part of our cross-platform BlackBerry Enterprise Service (BES) Secure Workspaces solution for iOS and Android devices.

In addition, I was responsible in shaping our general file management, cloud, and document collaboration strategies, which were all being built from the ground up and integrated into our latest devices, operating systems and value added services. Document security, fidelity and enterprise-grade reliability was at the heart of everything our development, UX and testing team focused on, at scale, globally.

Marketing & Managing Microsoft Office Compatibility Software

Founded in 1984, DataViz specialized in Microsoft Office compatibility and productivity solutions for Mac, Windows, Linux, Palm, Symbian, Java, Windows Mobile, BlackBerry, Android and iOS.

I started at DataViz as a tele sales & support specialist where I learned to put customers first in order to build better products. I also ran several marketing initiatives including grassroots programs, search engine optimization, print and online ad campaigns, product positioning, messaging, web design, visitor traffic and sales conversion rates.

With a strong understanding of marketing and customer needs, I then began my product management career focusing on Microsoft Outlook, Access and Exchange synchronization solutions as well as Documents To Go for mobile Word, Excel and PowerPoint support. These products were available directly from the DataViz website, in brick and mortar stores, in app stores and preloaded on OEM devices with a loyal base of millions of users around the world.
