Hi, I'm Megan Cook

Hi, I'm Megan Cook, product manager and PDX Code Guild bootcamp grad based in Vancouver, WA. I recently completed a year long contract with Adobe as a Growth Product Manager where I ran experiments using desktop notifications to improve the user experience and boost revenue. I've been coding since early 2021 and enjoy building apps, businesses, and websites.

Professionally, I've done a lot. I’ve been a midwife, doula, real estate agent, stay-at-home parent, clinical researcher, small business owner and consultant, server, and retail associate. So, I come to tech from a non-traditional background. I bring over 20 years of diverse professional experience, a high level of empathy, a strong desire to build and optimize, and growth knowledge to the table.

In short, I'm coachable, a strong communicator, and hungry to learn, collaborate, and contribute.

Clients and colleagues may share that I strive to deliver an exceptional experience through active listening, informed choice, and managing expectations. They may tell you about my organized, data-driven approach to every task, my attention to detail, my calm demeanor and optimistic outlook.

I excel at collaborating with multiple stakeholders and translating complex challenges into actionable steps and win-win outcomes.

Equity in healthcare and reproductive social justice work are topics about which I am deeply passionate. I get fired up about access to quality midwifery care and closing that maternal health care gap. I believe all people should thrive so I like to pair my tech skills with social justice. Seeking a comrade for the revolution?
