Experienced Digital Creator & Leader
Hello. My name is John Osburn. I’ve been managing products for 7 years, so I know how important efficiency and creativity are for a well oiled machine.
If you need someone who’s not simply good at organization and planning but can deliver that new SEO-friendly website with slick UX yesterday, I’ve done it all.
Whether it’s effectively communicating with cross-functional stakeholders, estimating budget needs, or creating a team from internal workers and outside contractors, I have a proven track record of efficiently tackling any task.
