About

Product leader and problem solver with a do-first, ask-forgiveness-later approach. I thrive in ambiguity, move quickly, and turn ideas into scalable solutions, leveraging full-stack product skills, data, and technical know-how. I bring teams together, align on the right outcomes, and get results that matter.
