James Okonkwo
About
From engineer to GPM. I help PMs sharpen product sense, run real discovery, and crush PM interviews at FAANG and high-growth startups.
I focus on long-term mentorship rather than one-off advice. We'll set clear goals, work through real problems from your day-to-day, and check in consistently so you actually build momentum. Expect candid feedback, frameworks you can reuse, and someone genuinely invested in you reaching the next level.

Reviews
Working with James completely changed how I approach my work. Every session was packed with practical, actionable advice — no fluff.
Incredibly generous with time and knowledge. James pushed me to think bigger and held me accountable to my goals. Highly recommend.
The best investment I've made in my career this year. Clear feedback, real industry insight, and genuinely cares about your progress.
James helped me turn a vague ambition into a concrete plan — and I actually hit it. Worth every penny.
