I wanted to be an astronaut.
Products got me first.

Still planning the space trip. In the meantime, I build things that matter.

My first product came in 2013 and I never looked back. Before that I took detours through sales, business development, and customer success. Those paths gave me something most product managers miss: a genuine obsession with the people who actually use the things I build.

Today I lead product and governance strategy across complex, regulated environments. I have shipped fraud detection systems, generative AI platforms, computer vision features, and NLP conversational interfaces into production. I also build the governance frameworks that make it safe to do all of this fast.

Some interesting things I have built recently are: AI-generated video tools, intelligent fitness apps, ML-powered tax calculators, civic tech platforms for document interpretation, and contract analysis tools for freelancers. If it sounds like a problem worth solving, I’m ready to dig in.

I am based in North America and have been shipping with remote teams since 2018. I am open to product and program management leadership roles and comfortable in environments where the ambiguity is real and the stakes are high.

Away from the screen you will find me on a football pitch coaching, in a kitchen experimenting, on a running trail, or hosting something worth showing up for.
