Paul Ogawa

Paul is a principal product manager in the Applied Sciences Group (ASG) at Microsoft.

Over his decade-plus career, Paul has built products that help people connect, create, and search the world around them.  His work spans shipping products from early-stage incubations, scaling products during periods of rapid user growth and managing teams through product strategy pivots.  Before Microsoft, he was a product manager at Facebook (now Meta).

Paul holds degrees in linguistics and computer science, with a minor in cognitive science and training in user-centered design.  He has long been drawn to the crossroads of psychology, design, and technology and enjoys finding ways to bring these fields together in his work.

Outside of work, Paul enjoys travelling, exploring the outdoors, practicing meditation and spending time with his dogs.
