Bio

Hey there! I'm Liz Swartsel, the Director of Product Operations at FormAssembly. I earned my degree in Interdisciplinary Studies from the University of Central Florida, with a focus on Natural Sciences, Social Sciences, and a minor in Computer Science. Fun fact: I kicked off my journey as a Computer Science major, crafting a Trivia Game for Windows 8 OS during one of my classes!

My career took off when an externship landed me a Junior Software Developer role at PowerDMS in 2012. Since then, I've worn many hats, from developing applications to providing top-notch support for customers transitioning to SaaS applications. I've even served as a Product Lead, overseeing the Standards and Training modules of the PowerDMS Suite.

In 2021, I found my home at FormAssembly, where I've thrived as a leader. Working alongside a stellar team of Product Managers, Product Owners, and Designers, I'm dedicated to delivering top-quality changes to our product.

My approach to product management? It's all about strategy and putting users first. I keep a global perspective, make objective decisions, and always prioritize the user experience.

Outside of work, you'll find me spending time with my wonderful husband and our adorable dogs, Amber and Coltrane. I'm a big fan of video games, Dungeons and Dragons, reading, and art - they're my go-to for soul-fueling and giving my analytical brain a break.

Oh, and if you're into pottery, check out my adventures on my WildShapePottery account, where I showcase my creations alongside my talented business partner, Erin Denton.

Thanks for dropping by - let's connect!
