Jackie Colburn

Position: Product Leader. Facilitator. Design Sprinter. Experimenter. Educator. - Independent Consultant

Jackie has been leading the creation of digital experiences for over a decade; everything from emerging startups to critical strategic efforts for fortune 50 businesses. She’s worked with teams of all shapes and sizes, leading strategy and helping them co-create, test, and build solutions.

Jackie launched her own practice in 2017, focused on facilitating Design Sprints. She’s run Sprints for clients including Ameriprise Financial, US Bank, and Best Buy. She’s had the opportunity to teach people how Sprint during training bootcamps, with John Zeratsky, co-author of the Sprint Book, and leads training initiatives for product teams in startup and corporate settings. She co-authored a Remote Sprint Guide with (John and Jake, authors of Sprint) at the start of the COVID19 pandemic to help teams move to remote collaboration more easily.

Jackie thrives when the problem is hard and the team is ready to make a change but doesn’t quite know what to do, or how. She has proven that openness and optimism accelerate our collective potential to make great things happen.

She is passionate about designing products and services that improve people’s lives. She believes that technology has the potential to make us all better and is a tool that should be used for good.
