Engineer · Product Leader · Systems Thinker
I work at the intersection of engineering, product, and customer impact — building systems that are clear, durable, and actually used.
My background blends software engineering, product leadership, and executive-facing program delivery. I’m drawn to complex environments where alignment matters as much as architecture.
