VP of Product Management at Pixability
Hi, I’m Don, and I’m thrilled to connect with you! As a Top 1% mentor in product management, I’ve had the privilege of meeting and guiding hundreds of mentees. Many of my mentees have secured new roles in product management, data science, and leadership, while others have leveled up their skills to tackle ambitious challenges and accelerate their careers.
With 15+ years of experience, I’ve honed my craft across diverse industries, including B2B SaaS, AdTech, MarTech, Business Intelligence, B2C platforms, Music Tech, and community-driven initiatives. At Pixability, I scaled YouTube data pipelines to process over 3 billion videos, enriched 1.75 billion videos, and drove over 9 billion predictions—empowering clients to achieve better targeting, safer ad placements, and stronger ROI through data and AI/ML innovation.
What can I help with? From crafting strategic roadmaps to finding product-market fit, leading in cross-functional environments, or building vibrant communities, I bring a collaborative and pragmatic approach to mentorship. My focus is always on actionable takeaways and measurable outcomes—whether you’re looking to level up, navigate stakeholder dynamics, or chart your next career move.
Let’s build something great together!
“This was my first session with Don, and it was a great introduction to understanding what a product manager actually does day-to-day. I came into the call curious about the scope and responsibilities of the PM role, and Don did a great job breaking down how the role differs from (and overlaps with) product design.”
“This was an introductory session since its a long term mentorship to help me turn my career story around. I went into detail on my job history (maybe bit more detail than he might have needed). He was quick to be able to say let's start with framing up career story and how I present myself. He also has sent bunch of really helpful links. Looking forward to following sessions with him.”
“I highly recommend Don as a mentor. Don shared actionable advice and insights that helped stir momentum for me in the last few weeks. I enjoyed speaking with him. He is kind and approachable. I'm thankful for his mentorship. He helped me move forward in my job search.”
