Hi, you’ve reached Abe McCallum; I hope you’re having a super fantastic day.
Throughout my 20-year career, I've pioneered innovative products that have enhanced the lives of over 250 million customers. This commitment to transformative problem solving has guided my professional evolution from Founder to Creative Director to Product Leader.
My expertise in Zero-to-One and consumer growth has helped shape the fintech landscape. I led the creation of Zelle in partnership with major U.S. banks and drove Venmo during its hyper-growth phase as the premier P2P payment app. Currently, I oversee Walmart's consumer fintech product portfolio, integrating digital and physical commerce to deliver exceptional experiences for customers nationwide.
My greatest joy comes from having mentored many talented professionals throughout my career, each interaction contributing to both their growth and my own. I remain steadfast in my core mantra:
Simplicity solves problems.
