Product executive · VP of Product, Duetto

I build strong, resilient product teams.

I lead product for the forecasting and pricing software hotels run their revenue on: a product organization of 50+, working alongside nearly 100 engineers, on an AI operating model we built ourselves.

100%

PM adoption of our AI-driven product development process

Duetto, voted the top hotel revenue management system on Hotel Tech Report, four years running

Product orgs that ship outcomes, not output.

Four calls I've made, and what they changed.

01 · Portfolio decisions

Sunsetting an acquired product before it ate the roadmap

It cost far more to run than it earned, with a long road to break even. I made the call to stop, took it to leadership, and moved a 10-person team to the work that mattered more.

02 · Growth through M&A

Bringing a third acquisition into the platform

I was a key product leader on Duetto's third acquisition, from the strategic assessment through integrating the team and product into our roadmap.

03 · Rebuilding the operating model

Restructuring the product org around AI

Through a major restructuring, a nearshore transition and new leadership at the top, I rebuilt the product org and kept delivery steady. We came out of it with a new way of working: AI-generated specs and artifacts reviewed the same way engineers review code, now used by every PM.

04 · Leading through a downturn

Launching into a market that had shut down

With up to 80% of hotels closed, I led the launch of a new enterprise product line that still found real traction in its first year, while we reworked our forecasting models fast enough to keep churn under 10%.

“Sabrina has become an invaluable asset to Duetto and to us as clients. Her deep knowledge and professionalism in addressing our needs are unparalleled.”

How I lead

People over process. Curiosity over comfort.

I started in accounting and finance, learned fast that spreadsheets weren't my destiny, and stumbled into product at a startup in Vermont. I've believed ever since that building teams matters as much as building products.

01Strategy, start to finish. I partner with our CPO on product strategy, from market research and validation through to the Board.
02Product as a team sport. I co-own go-to-market with Sales, Marketing and Customer Success, and co-run our Customer Advisory Board.
03Close to the field. The best roadmap input I get comes from customers in the room, not reports about them.
04Still a builder. I prep every one-on-one with a leadership system I built myself in Claude, and I'm happiest experimenting alongside my teams.

Speaking

Talks for product leaders who'd rather hear what actually happened.

Concrete stories, real numbers, and the decisions behind them. No frameworks for the sake of frameworks.

Built for the pressure

Product leaders are now the layer that pressure-tests ideas before they reach the team. Three moves for leading through it, and the AI system I built to stay present for my people.

Talk · HITEC San Antonio · June 2026

From data chaos to unreal performance

AI has crossed from concept to competitive advantage, but most hotel teams are still stuck translating data instead of acting on it. My part of the session: why the fix isn't one-size-fits-all. Performance is personal, and the same data has to become a different answer for every kind of business.

Here comes the dynamite

Co-presented the product roadmap keynote with Duetto CPO Kartik Yellepeddi to a room of customers, buyers and decision-makers: where the platform is going, and why it matters to the people who run on it.

Topics I speak on

Saying no more than yes: stopping the wrong thing before it reaches the team
Building an AI-native product org that people actually use
Why AI expands the manager's job, and how to buy back the bandwidth

Writing

What I'm thinking about, mostly on LinkedIn.

“AI doesn't free up time. It expands what we feel responsible for.”

Article · August 2026

AI isn't the differentiator anymore. It's the stress test.

Back from the CPO Summit: why individual speed isn't organizational speed, why clarity on what not to build matters more than ever, and why leadership is the one thing AI can't accelerate.

Off the clock

I'm an avid reader, a regular at the gym, a newly hooked bookbinder, and happiest on the slopes. I'm mom to two boys, and I mentor students at the University of Vermont, my alma mater, on product management and the leap from campus to career.

Let's talk about what you're building.

Yes, that's still my OG email, maiden name and all. Updating it is on the roadmap. Somewhere below the fold.
