Hi, I'm Noah.
I'm a product manager focused on digital video products, OTT and CTV apps, and the workflows that keep everything running behind the scenes. If you're here from work, the Work and About sections are a good place to start.
Everything else is the more personal side of the site. Part portfolio, part creative sandbox, part digital junk drawer. Some of it is polished, some is messy, and all of it is real.
Featured work
Streaming product, from the CMS to the couch
A few of the projects I've worked on. Details are generalized where they need to be.
108 Local CTV apps, launched in just over a year
Front-end product on local Nexstar station apps across Apple TV, Fire TV, Roku, and Samsung TV. Requirements, station onboarding, post-launch support workflows.
Multi-livestream experiences on connected TV
Defined how multiple live channels surface in the app, how the experience handles availability and fallback, and how support teams troubleshoot it.
TVE authentication and entitlements on CTV
Sign-in flows, MVPD entitlements, channel mapping, and the operational support around them so authenticated viewers can stream the linear feed inside the apps.
Launching an AVOD app across every major platform
Helped launch a standalone AVOD app for travel and lifestyle content, including Roku, Apple TV, Fire TV, mobile, and FAST distribution. First end-to-end product role.
How I think about product
A digital video product looks simple when it works.
Behind that simplicity is a CMS, a feed, metadata, an auth layer, analytics, support documentation, and a content team trying to publish on a deadline. My job is usually to bring clarity across all of that. Turn complicated workflows into something teams can actually use. Make sure the viewer never has to think about any of it.
I came up through the creative and operations side of media before moving into streaming product management. That background helps me see both the thing the viewer sees and the behind-the-scenes work it takes to make it happen.
Vertical, short-form
Stories cut for the phone
Built with Firework, the vertical-video platform I worked on before Nexstar. Old habits, new format.
The rest of the site
Creative sandbox and digital junk drawer
Less polished, more personal. Videos, graphics, photography, family projects, and the things that don't have a home anywhere else.
Family trips, kid moments, everyday life
Short videos I've cut for social and for us. I came up as a video editor and I never really stopped.
Photos from the South Bay and beyond
Mostly family, occasionally a sunset, sometimes a pickleball court.
Design work, experiments, and Photoshop projects
Some old motion graphics roots, some recent personal experiments.

Send me a note. I'm always happy to connect with people working on similar problems, especially anyone running into the same parts of streaming that I find interesting.
