Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRichard Cho is a product and technology leader with eight years of formal product-focused experience and a broader two-decade track record spanning startups, consulting, finance, and media. He currently advises and builds high-performing digital teams as Managing Director, Product at Growing Abundance Mindsets and previously scaled Gartner’s enterprise crowdsourcing and digital client experiences as a Group VP. His background blends rigorous quantitative training (AM in Astronomy from Harvard; BS in Physics & Mathematics from NYU) with hands-on engineering and product chops—React, Rails, SQL—and two patents in recommendation systems. He has led mission-critical transformations from waterfall to agile, created data & algorithms teams, and driven product monetization and global delivery at scale. Unusually for a senior operator, he also taught high school physics at Brooklyn Tech, an experience he cites as his proudest and most formative leadership challenge. Based in New York, he combines analytical rigor, cross-functional leadership, and a knack for turning research-grade ideas into usable, revenue-generating products.
