Alex sUng
EXPERIENCED PrODUCT LEADER
I am a product leader with 10+ years in product management and 5+ years mentoring / managing other PMs. In addition, I’ve been a 1st PM hire at multiple startups and gone thru 2 acquisitions as well led product teams from 0 to decacorn. Currently, I am the Head of Product, Partners at YouVersion and love the mission of bringing God's word to everyone, everywhere, every day.
My specialty is leading product teams in the B2B2C SaaS / Marketplaces and focused on early 0-1 of PLG (product-led growth). I've built three successful AI products at AgentSync, Turing, and Mist Systems/Juniper Networks.​ When I'm not working, you can find me surfing Product Hunt, playing Ultimate Frisbee, or exploring new Omakase experiences.
