Bio
Sarah Cohen
In just his first year of working on my team, Jerry took on and mastered Agile product management for online shopping, mobile commerce, enterprise platform development, SEO optimization, algorithmic personalization, user experience, dynamic merchandising, and (incredibly) much more. Not only that, Jerry’s sunny nature and calm demeanor make others eager to work with him. Jerry is very creative and exceptionally good with technical detail. This gives him the rare ability to communicate concepts visually and verbally to cross-functional teams, identify potential project snags, and propose intelligent and practical solutions. Jerry is exceptional, and when he is in charge of a project that project is exceptional, too. Our team would hire him again in an instant, and I cannot recommend him more highly.
