I’m building things that make the good parts easier.

I lead a product and engineering team and build tools in the margins. Small, useful things for hosting, gardening, cooking, traditions. I'm not optimizing for exits, just having fun making what I want to exist and writing about it here.

Conversation Starters

DM me your favorite podcast!

Creative problem-solving for big-hearted ventures.

Rebecca Spitzer

I've spent 15+ years leading teams, but what energizes me is the build.

I'm drawn to products that solve real problems, not problems invented to justify an exit. I like teams that have fun while building something mission-driven.

If you have the spark of an idea, let's talk it through! I love validating ideas, vibe-coding prototypes, and figuring out what to build next. I'm at my best bringing clarity to ambiguity.

Need a conversation starter? I live in NJ, commute to NYC, and balance work, side projects, coaxing my kids to try new recipes, and pruning powdery mildew out of my garden... almost always listening to a podcast.
