Bio
Poojan Chokshi
I had the pleasure of working with Grant as part of a larger product team tasked with coming up with new solutions to offer additional value to customers, and had collaborated with him on a couple of projects as part of that setup. Right off the bat, I could see that Grant was quick to absorb what was required, and I admired the way he drove through all aspects of the product development life-cycle right from ideation to implementation with relative ease in spite of having to juggle through multiple priorities. He brought a mix of desirable technical attributes and soft skills to our team; especially his ability to break down complex problems, bring very well-thought out and creative solutions to the table, multi-task and take a sense of ownership without compromising on the quality of the outputs, and present his ideas or solutions to customers and internal teams/stakeholders while maintaining exceptional clarity were truly admirable. I highly recommend Grant and believe he would be a worthy addition to any product team!

I worked with Grant on a product management team for over a year and he was an absolute pleasure to work with. Some of the traits Grant brings to a product team are reliability, innovation and attention to detail. No matter what was thrown his way Grant was able to break down complex problems, think creatively and thoroughly about potential solutions and drive these solutions all the way from conceptualization to launch. I wouldn’t hesitate at another opportunity to work with Grant due to both the technical and soft skills that he brings to the table as a Product Manager.
