Scott Hanford — Growth & Product

I build products
and grow them.

Currently a Product Manager at Adobe. I write about growth, product, and the messy middle of building companies.

About

I've spent 10+ years bouncing between core and growth product management, growth marketing, and product marketing.

I've been a founder twice, worked with companies from pre-launch to $100M+ ARR, and I love the challenges of both 0-to-1 and the messy middle.

I studied at UCLA, and I'm drawn to the things that power design and creativity.
