A recognized industry leader who lives and breathes all things corporate, product strategy & management, cross-functional team leadership, and meaningful business growth, Delaney has consistently delivered exceptional results, including a 40% increase in user engagement and a robust 25% boost in revenue across the companies that she’s been involved with. She first explored the product management field when she was 19 years old after joining a social media startup called Ping.it, which earned her the nickname “Product Prodigy.”

In addition to founding and building three companies, Delaney has worked with a diverse range of nimble startups and global tech giants, including collaborations with Meta, Google, Microsoft, and Amazon with whom she developed a machine learning solution that resulted in a 40% improvement in content moderation for the Global Internet Forum to Counter Terrorism.

As the Founder and Head of Product at 35mm - which has now pivoted to Fyby  - she helped increase conversion rates by 25%. Also, as the Founder of LocalEye.org, she was instrumental in attracting over 25,000 monthly page visits within 3 years. She previously also founded CollegeCleaningCompany.com, where she generated over 100 signups upon launch using organic marketing. 

At the National Apartment Association (NAA), Delaney served as the highest-ranking product leader during a pivotal transformation period for the organization at 28 years old. In a role with no existing VP of Product, SVP of Product, or Chief Product Officer above her, she stepped in as the de facto head of product and restructured a struggling team of eight. She led strategy and execution across NAA’s core product portfolio, including Click & Lease—one of the most widely used leasing platforms in the multifamily housing sector—Click & Comply, Oasis, and Income/Expense IQ (IE/IQ). In addition to driving improvements to these flagship tools, she launched an enterprise-facing marketplace that unlocked new B2B revenue streams. Delaney owned a $36M product portfolio and successfully enhanced internal operations across IT, Marketing, Legal, and Customer Success, improving speed-to-market and internal alignment. From redesigning leasing workflows and managing complex partner integrations to introducing scalable experimentation frameworks and growth playbooks, Delaney elevated NAA’s product maturity while staying deeply engaged with customer needs and market opportunities. Her tenure was defined by strategic clarity, executional rigor, and meaningful impact on revenue and product adoption.

Prior to her most recent role at NAA, Delaney was the Head of Product at Podopolo at 27 years old; where she led a team of product managers, designers, and engineers; ensured a 30% increase in user retention; and drove a 50% increase in engagement by crafting a gamification system. At Naya Labs, she oversaw a diverse portfolio of products including Solar Lead Factory (B2B2C), The Breakdown App (social media), Veenly (consumer), Hero ALERT app (health tech), and GIFCT (cybersecurity). She was also previously the youngest product manager hired at EVERFI at 25 years old, where she helped generate an additional $10 million in annual revenue.

In addition to her leadership in product and business strategy, Delaney Norvor is a writer whose work explores the realities of leadership, identity, and navigating systems not built for everyone. Drawing from her lived experience as a Black disabled woman in corporate leadership, she writes with clarity and conviction about topics like workplace equity, inclusive leadership, and the silent costs of being underestimated. Her published articles challenge corporate norms while empowering underrepresented professionals to lead with impact, not permission.
