What did I learn from Mixpanel?
Mixpanel Chapter
Product Management Learnings
• Understand on the user problem. It’s easy to get distracted by feedback and internal execution, but ultimately if you don’t understand and can advocate for the user problems, you’ll hit dead ends
• PM is hard - be comfortable with uncertainty/discomfort. You’re not expected to know the right answer at all times - but you are expected to handle uncertainty gracefully
Life Chapters during Mixpanel

• Presented my first Product Roadmap and spoke on stage to customers
• Made my first coworker friends
• Worked remotely and took surfing lessons in Portugal
• Got an ACL surgery
• Met Rohan, met his family, he met mine, and we decided to move in together
