I'm a seasoned technical product leader with 10+ years experience building data-intensive products and B2B SaaS platforms that drive adoption and scale.

I was previously the first product analytics hire at a Vision AI startup, Roboflow. Before that, I co-founded a B2B data operations tool, Shipyard. Earlier in my career, I was the Head of Data Products at PMG Advertising Agency where I built the team from the ground up. With a wide array of experience across Product, Data, and AI, I've led teams of up to 12 and have also been in the weeds as a department of one.

It's most important for me to work for a mission-driven company that wants to scale with bold and innovative approaches. I want to sink my teeth into tough problems, learn new things, and work with interesting and curious people.

I'm primarily looking for technical product roles. I enjoy ideating solutions, building MVPs, experimentation, and orchestrating all of the work to achieve a strategic vision. I prefer a roughly 70/30 split between leader/IC. I prefer smaller organizations with the ability to build something from the ground up. Despite my background, I'd like to avoid working in the advertising space.
