Corry is Looking for Work

You can see a regularly updated detailed summary of my skills and experience on my LinkedIn profile. That’s where I show what I have to offer, while this page is about what I want for my career. 😊

What I Want to Do

I want to:

  • Lead: Hire, train, mentor, and invest in talent and create an environment for continuous improvement, innovation, and optimization.
  • Manage Holistically: Manage collaborative projects and innovative products from inception through their entire lifecycle. Iteration and innovation are my specialty. User research, experimentation, and testing are a big part of that.
  • Take Responsibility: Foster a sustainable burnout-free workplace where everyone feels secure, included, and safe to be themselves. The organization benefits from the whole of each of our experience, and we can’t leverage that without safety.
  • Adapt: Foresee and react to the changing global environment with technical innovation, decisiveness, and good faith compromise with colleagues and partners.
  • Share Knowledge: Continue to build my reputation for speaking with kind candor about risk, opportunity, and providing solid general technical advice for decision-makers.
  • Win: Set ambitious expectations and meet them consistently, so senior leadership can deliver on our promises to customers and shareholders.

Where I Want to Work

I want to work fully remote, or hybrid within the San Francisco/Oakland Area (accessible via public transit) for a company that:

  • Values diversity and shows it in action
  • Cares about doing things well and not just doing them quickly
  • Does the right thing, even if doing otherwise may be more profitable
  • Respects experience, takes expert advice seriously, and interprets data critically
  • Invests in the skills and careers of its people
  • Rewards employees based on clear metrics, based on outcomes

I’m available to start immediately for the right opportunity.

Company Size

I can magnify my ROI for large companies and have recent experience proving that, but smaller companies and startups benefit from my experience as well. My skills span multiple aspects of any project and flex to their circumstances day by day. I can also help scale operations with insights from several different steps along that road.
