I've been trying to break into Product Management or UX. I'd say my personal interest is in community / social products.

Kind of a weird situation, relocated from LA a month ago. I've been an independent contractor my entire career (10 years), huge range of skills including founded a startup, early stage product consulting, frontend dev, UI/UX design, Django & PHP dev, project management, social media marketing etc.

Not sure how to approach this employment thing on new territory, especially with such a weird career path.

NYC is actually perfect for a lot of this. I think UX, design, and front end dev fit well with the mixture of media and technology. Back end and hardcore tech is obviously important, but the real winner is going to be due to design. Dropped ya a LinkedIn and happy to intro you to some startups where this might fit: [e-mail] (invite open for others as well).
