About Me
I am a product leader with a background in data, a love for building, and a focus on solving real problems. I have spent the last few years leading product and data teams, scaling AI-powered platforms, and turning complex ideas into products that actually help people. I care a lot about making things that are clear, useful, and built to last.
I like staying close to the work. Whether it's writing a strategy, mapping a system, or digging into user flows, I enjoy the process of making sense of ambiguity and helping teams move with clarity. I believe great product work happens when teams stay curious, move fast, and always stay close to the problem they are solving.
I am always looking for ways to grow as a builder, a teammate, and a leader. I read a lot about emerging tech (AI and LLMs these days), product thinking, and leadership. I experiment with side projects to learn something new or just to build for fun. And I try to bring the same mindset of learning and curiosity into every project I work on.
Outside of work, I am an avid Cleveland sports fan (which builds lots of character, trust me), I spend a lot of time with my two kids, dive into side projects when I can, and read whatever I can find on new tech and product thinking. I am also a big time Star Wars fan and just patiently wait for The Mandalorian and Grogu to come out next year.

My Journey
Foundations in Data & Operations
I started my career as an analyst, working closely with operations teams to solve real business problems using data. It was here I learned how organizations run, how decisions get made, and how to use data to tell stories that drive action.
Building Data Products & AI
From there, I moved into building data products. This included internal tools like reporting platforms, analytics tools that empowered product and business teams, and external products like a chat message autocomplete service and an AI-native search engine that delighted users. This was my first taste of building things that others rely on, and it showed me the value of combining technical thinking with user needs.

Startups & Product Leadership
I transitioned into product roles where I could own the roadmap and bring ideas to life. At Healthpilot, I led a shift from B2B2C to B2C, rebuilt the product from the ground up, and helped grow the platform from under 50K in ARR to seven figures and serving hundreds of thousands of users. My focus expanded to leading both product and data strategy, especially around AI and personalization.
