New York Pat Diggins Product Manager

A little
about me.

I started in customer-facing roles and moved into product by taking on technical problems before they were mine to solve.

Today I own publisher platforms and follow problems from customer workflow through data, architecture, implementation, and adoption.

I make the product call, stay close enough to test it, and use AI to investigate, build, and ship.
