I’m Lacey

— a fintech product leader with 10+ years building digital banking products at Fortune 500 firms and high-growth startups. I've taken products from zero to launch, led cross-functional teams across deposit, credit, and fraud, and scaled operations at institutions ranging from JPMorgan Chase and BlackRock to Series A startups. I specialize in turning complex financial problems into seamless customer experiences.

My Skillset

Product Leader

With 10+ years in financial services across product, operations, fraud, investments, retail banking, project management, and customer experience, I have a diverse background, leading to impeccable problem solving skills. I have thrived in high-growth startups as well as fast-paced leading institutions, so I am comfortable working under pressure.

Passionate

I don't just ship features — I build products that move the needle. I led an operations team to industry-leading fraud loss rates and helped launch a personal financial management app that grew 600% in its first year across digital channels. Whether I'm deep in discovery or aligning stakeholders on a roadmap, I bring the same rigor and drive to every stage of the product lifecycle.

Product Showcase

HMBradley

As Head of Operations, I built and scaled the ops function from the ground up at a high-growth fintech startup — spanning deposit accounts, credit products, and fraud operations. I established workflows, hired and developed the team, and drove fraud losses to industry-leading levels while the customer base scaled rapidly.

Head of Ops

Jenius Bank

As VP of Product, I led end-to-end development of web and mobile personal financial management tools — including net worth tracking, budgeting, and credit score features — from ideation through market launch. I owned the product roadmap, partnered with engineering and design, and embedded continuous discovery practices to keep the product grounded in real customer needs.

Continuous Discovery

Discovery isn't a phase — it's a practice. I've embedded continuous discovery frameworks across product teams, including Opportunity Solution Trees, Jobs-to-be-Done, customer journey mapping, and ICE prioritization. The result: roadmaps rooted in evidence, not assumptions, and features that consistently drive engagement and retention.
