Matthew's README
Welcome to my README! I'm Matthew Macfarlane, Product Manager for Knowledge Group at GitLab.
Who I am
- I live in Washington and grew up in Seattle.
- I studied economics and history at Pacific Lutheran University in Tacoma, WA. In particular I enjoyed macro econ, found statistics fun, and liked the research and writing process a history major required.
- I started my career in technology on the sales and marketing side at Splunk. I didn't really know where I fit in given my quantitative/qualitivative degree type. I became more interested in how the "bread is made" and transitioned to product management while at GitLab. Having served on the customer facing side of technology prior to becoming a PM has proved invaluable in translating customer needs to effective products.
Working with me
- I am usually most productive in the mornings as most of my team is located in EMEA.
- I'm an introvert but always open to coffee chats!
- I focus on being organized and use Slack, email, and GitLab To-do's to complete relevant items.
My passions
- Spending time with my wife and cat
- Trail running
- Eating pizza
- Going for another trail run
- Eating thai food
- Eating more pizza
