Hi, I'm Joe

I'm an AWS technical product manager in block storage (Amazon EBS).

Previously, I led user and product research in the file and object storage space (S3, EFS) and in container image storage (ECR). And before that, I was a Learning Experience Designer in AWS Support Engineering.

I have a PhD in Victorian British History but ended up in the world of big tech. When I was an academic qualitative researcher, I taught PhD-level theory and method courses, presented at numerous conferences, wrote articles, and published a book on Victorian mental models of print technology and consumer goods.

In short, I'm fascinated by how people make sense of the world around them and interpret their experiences with products.

Just for fun: I'm learning Norwegian and I'm a terrible but enthusiastic curler. I guess I like the cold.
