Every case study here answers one question: measurable outcome.
How to read this
Case studies are split into two views:
Internal Tooling: built for internal teams, ops/support/data, never seen by a customerCustomer-Facing: shipped to end users, the product they actually touch
Same PM work either way. Problem, mechanism, outcome. The view just tells you who the thing was for.

The template
Every case study follows the same shape. TL;DR up top if that's all you need, full breakdown below if you want it.
- TL;DR: one line, what changed and by how much, plus the outcome metrics
- Saw It: the problem, in plain terms. What was broken and how I know, evidence, not a hunch
- Figured It Out: how I got to the fix. Constraints, tradeoffs, who I looped in
- Did It: what I shipped, including the miss if there was one, and the fix that followed
- My Role: what I actually owned vs where I partnered
- Full breakdown: problem & risk, discovery evidence, context, timeline (git log style), what we did, a rough sketch, who benefits, next steps
A note on the sketches
The visuals in each case study are sketches I drew myself, not screenshots. The products belong to companies I worked for, their UI and data aren't mine to publish. What you're seeing is my own redrawing of the workflow, accurate to how it worked, not a leak of proprietary design.
