Subject: [Wikimedia Announcements] [Announcement] Howie Fung joins Wikimedia
To: wikimediaannounce-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org
Hello all,
I'm pleased to announce that Howie Fung, who has been supporting us as
a consultant since October 2009, is joining the Wikimedia Foundation
as Senior Product Manager. In the immediate future, Howie will
continue to support the deployment of our user experience
improvements, as well as the continuing development and deployment of
the FlaggedRevs extension for the English Wikipedia. In the longer
term, Howie will help us to build Wikimedia's product development
roadmap by commissioning and assessing research and analytics, and by
engaging in broad consultative processes.
Most recently, Howie was Senior Product Manager at Rhapsody,
where he helped grow the music site's traffic five-fold within the the
first year
on the basis of extensive customer research, including web analytics,
focus groups, user testing, and customer surveys. Prior to that, Howie
was Product Manager at eBay, prioritizing features based on business
objectives, usability studies, and economic impact. Howie has more
than 15 years of experience in product management, business analysis
and strategy, technology evaluation, and team incubation. He has an
MBA from The Anderson School at UCLA and a Bachelor of Science in
Chemical Engineering from Stanford University.
As a consultant, Howie completed several key projects, including the
survey of former contributors [1], the analysis of feedback from the
user experience beta [2], and extensive analysis of the user
interface, workflows and terminology used in the FlaggedRevs
extension. He has also supported Wikimedia's five-year business
planning process. We're very pleased that Howie is joining Wikimedia's
permanent staff: please join me in welcoming him!
All best,
Erik
