Hi ๐Ÿ™‹๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ Iโ€™m Joshua (he/him) ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ

I am currently traveling Asia-Pacific while searching for a remote/hybrid opportunity in Asia to start in Q2 or Q3 2025.

Iโ€™m a well-rounded Program Manager and Product Design/Creative Ops Manager with 6+ years of experience driving diverse teams at Disney, Google, Instagram, Qualia, Khan Academy, and Hilton.

 

From producing theme park attractions ๐ŸŽข, to launching augmented reality experiences ๐Ÿคณ, managing branding campaigns at a startup ๐Ÿก, joining a non-profit education tech org ๐Ÿ“š, and finally leading the global digital design operations at the biggest hospitality chain there is ๐Ÿจ โ€” Iโ€™ve done them all.

I thrive in multi-disciplinary, fast-paced teams, and ambiguous environments. My role is to put structures in place โ€” to empower by establishing scalable processes, fostering a healthy team culture, managing resources, building stakeholder relationships, and connecting the dots while shepherding ๐Ÿ‘ projects successfully to the finish line.

โ€œWe keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because weโ€™re curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.โ€

I create short form social media content as I travel (@thisisourstop). I do it not to become an influencer, but to have it as a creative outlet and to share it twith friends & families.

I am a self-published poet ๐Ÿ“. As an ambivert, I believe that written words are just as powerful as spoken. Check out my book Not All Fallen Is Lost and some writing Iโ€™ve done! Along with Jasmine Lawrence ๐Ÿ‘ง๐Ÿพ, I started Align by Line, a podcast where we have candid conversations about life with the help of poetry.

Iโ€™ve been playing the piano ๐ŸŽน and singing (mostly in the shower ๐Ÿšฟ) since I was little. When COVID19 turned our lives upside down in 2020 ๐Ÿ™ƒ, I found solace in running ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ and being a plant dad ๐Ÿชด.

โ€œYou canโ€™t wait until life isnโ€™t hard anymore before you decide to be happy. You are so much more than the bad things that happen to you.โ€
