How I work

Three habits that show up in every project on this page.

Frame

Turning ambiguity into a defined problem — contextual inquiry, competitive analysis, stakeholder alignment.

Decide

Weighing what a decision costs against what it protects, and defending why the rejected paths were rejected.

Ship

Prototyping in code, using AI to move faster, validating with real users before calling it done.

About

My artwork
Public speaking
Reading

I trained as an architect before moving into product — that background shows up as a habit of thinking in systems and constraints, not just screens. An HCI master's at Indiana University sharpened that into a research-first approach to product decisions.

Today I'm a founding PM on a B2B/DTC SaaS product, working across strategy, research, and execution — often shipping prototypes in code myself. Alongside that, I've designed for accessibility (Microsoft), trust in AI interactions (Salesforce), and internal systems used by thousands of people (Indiana University). What connects them is the same question: what does this person actually need, and how do I know that's true.

Off the clock: I paint, I've done public speaking, and I always have a book going. Probably more of my actual personality shows up in those than in any resume bullet.
