Bio
Kami Axelsen
I had the privilege of working with Janae while I served as the Product Owner of the WEX Online team; Janae as the Product Manager. Janae is someone that not only learns the product exhaustively, but also the organization, the business, the market, as well as the customer. She has an aptitude to quickly assess the impacts to the business and the customer whether it be for production defects, enhancements, or defining a MVP. Janae has a wonderful ability to take large, complex, and ambiguous initiatives, and break them down into manageable efforts, and scope and prioritize them accordingly. She is clear and concise in her delivery, team oriented, and a true pleasure to work with.

Janae is a great product partner to have. I’ve had the pleasure to work with her for the past two years and a half. She always thinks of our products in a long and small term so we can prioritize and keep releasing great quality products. She’s well organized and determined, she’s really close to the product process and always making sure everything is up to the best standards.
