Mark Strehlow

AI-native product and design leader translating emerging technology into experiences people trust.

Now

For over 20 years, I’ve built category-defining products across major technology shifts — early internet, mobile, social, blockchain, and now AI — turning emerging technologies into products people understand, trust, and enjoy using.

I’ve built products used by millions, scaled venture-backed companies, and contributed to two acquisitions. After a decade building AI-powered products, I bring founder DNA to teams that need to move fast and navigate ambiguity — operating as a strategic leader, hands-on builder, and player-coach who elevates team craft and velocity.
