About

I’m María Leal, a digital product professional with nearly 20 years of experience in the digital world and almost 8 years in Product Management. I’ve worked on complex digital products across international markets, collaborating closely with engineering, design, data and business teams. I’m especially interested in the intersection of product, technology and business, and in making complex ideas easier to understand. Alongside my work in product, I write and create practical educational content on Product Management and technology. I’m also the creator of The Product Shelf.
