Hello.

I'm Chad Alderson, a UI/UX and Product Manager with a passion for AI-driven solutions and technology. Recently, I've been leading the product development of PubRocket.fm, a cutting-edge generative AI platform powered by GPT-4 and Claude 3.5 Sonnet that empowers podcast creators with advanced transcription, content generation, and publication tools. My technical expertise includes Jinja2, Tailwind CSS, and a strong understanding of OpenAI's GPT-4x. I excel at bridging the gap between business stakeholders and engineers, managing project definition, planning, and execution to ensure seamless communication and project success.

In my career, I've had the privilege of managing a cross-functional team at DataStax, where I spearheaded a global web strategy that increased website traffic by 20% and improved our SEO rankings by 18%. Before that, I founded AMP.build, a software engineering and design agency that achieved significant revenue growth and a stellar reputation for client satisfaction.

Innovation drives me, and I've developed educational tools and mobile applications that enhance user experiences and promote conservation within the fly-fishing community. My love for podcasting led me to create the Barbless Fly Fishing Podcast, which became a leading voice in the angling world with over 25,000 monthly downloads.

I hold a BS in Business with a focus on Management Information Systems from Cal State Chico. My skills include digital strategy, market research, content strategy, and a deep understanding of modern web technologies and analytics tools.

Away from the keyboard, I'm either experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen, spending quality time with my French Bulldog, The Pig (aka Piggy Smalls, The Notorious P.I.G.), or enjoying the solitude of fly fishing. It's these moments that balance out my tech-driven days.

Currently, I'm making my way through Dungeon Crawler Carl - Book 6., which has been a surprisingly hilarious read. And despite never considering myself a cat person, Princess Donut, the Queen Anne Chonk, is slowly winning me over.
