FleetPulse
Independent AI-assisted fleet operations platform spanning maintenance, logistics, dispatch, driver workflows, compliance, telematics, and operational decision support.
Director of Product Management, with nine years leading B2B and B2C product organizations on top of eight years in engineering. Mobile and web apps, enterprise platforms, connected hardware, two-sided marketplaces, e-commerce, and applied AI. I still get out on site with the people who use what my teams build. The work starts in a truck yard or a shop bay, not a roadmap tool.


Product leadership grounded in real customers, complex problems, and measurable outcomes.
How I work
Five principles that guide how I work with teams and turn complex problems into products people rely on.
I have never learned anything important about a product in a conference room. On-site observation, ride-alongs, and job mapping are the input. Every team I have led has picked up the habit, and every time the roadmap got shorter and better.
Not a partner function I check in with. I sit in the research sessions, work through the journey, and argue about what a screen has to make obvious before anyone writes a ticket. Nielsen Norman certified, though the habit matters more than the certificate.
A clickable prototype settles arguments a spec cannot, and it exposes the workflow you quietly assumed away. I would rather burn a week building the wrong thing small than a quarter building it at scale.
Eight years in telecom, mobile device management, and desktop engineering before product. I can read a constraint, question an estimate, and tell the difference between hard and tedious.
A team that spends every hour on meetings and status updates stops being a product team. I protect time for discovery, competitive work, and prototyping, cut process that is not earning its keep, and keep the team close enough to the customer to notice when the market moves.
Selected work
A few of the products and platforms I’ve led from strategy through launch and growth. Employer work is intentionally described without proprietary product imagery.
Independent AI-assisted fleet operations platform spanning maintenance, logistics, dispatch, driver workflows, compliance, telematics, and operational decision support.
Mobile experiences for commercial drivers spanning inspections, hours, roadside events, compliance workflows, and connected hardware.
B2B fleet experiences covering operational visibility, telematics, maintenance workflows, service providers, and asset management.
Consumer and commercial rental journeys across web, mobile, and branch touchpoints, shaped through field research and experimentation.
Featured · Independent project
FleetPulse is an independent working prototype exploring how a modern fleet operations platform could connect vehicles, drivers, maintenance, logistics, dispatch, compliance, and customer impact in one operating model. Instead of treating those workflows as separate systems, FleetPulse uses shared operational state to surface risk, explain what changed, and help people make the next decision.
I built it the same way I approach real product work: start with the operating problem, model the workflow, prototype the decisions that matter, test the interactions, and expand only when the product earns the complexity.


Experience
From early engineering to product leadership across fleet, mobility, and digital experiences.
View full résumé →Holman
Product leadership across a portfolio of ten-plus platforms spanning asset management, licensing and registration, purchasing, and B2B and B2C remarketing. I lead a twenty-person organization and set the multi-year strategy across it. I also brought on-site research and prototyping into a group that had not worked that way.
Penske Transportation Solutions
Owned strategy and delivery across operations, maintenance billing, service provider management, repair workflows, and driver compliance. Grew the organization from eight to eighteen PMs across eight teams, built the two-year roadmaps that carried capital approvals, and reported strategy and results to executives every month.
Penske Transportation Solutions
Built the mobile product function from nothing and launched two apps from zero to one, then took on the flagship B2B web portal. Hired more than ten PMs and built the onboarding program that cut ramp time in half. On-site research and journey mapping became standard practice here.
Penske Transportation Solutions
Full ownership of two iOS and Android products end to end. Launched the driver app now used by 80,000-plus people, and more than tripled adoption of the fleet manager app through on-site research and a short list of the right features.
Penske Transportation Solutions
Eight years building and running infrastructure for a 40,000-person company. It is where the technical fluency comes from, and why I ask different questions in an architecture review.

Let's talk
I am always interested in how other teams are solving real customer problems. If you are working on a customer-facing product with real complexity, I would love to hear about it.
