Background

I am a technical product leader and founder-operator with 15+ years of experience building AI, fintech, developer-platform, and enterprise products.

My work sits at the intersection of product strategy, customer experience, UX, and engineering execution. I have taken products from early customer discovery and rapid prototypes through architecture, launch, monetization, experimentation, and scale.

Because of my engineering background, I move comfortably between customer problems, product requirements, UX flows, APIs, platform architecture, and delivery tradeoffs.
