MY STORY

I build AI products, and I love watching people grow into their potential.

From product manager to AI leader to educator, my path has been about one thing: turning complex technology into something people can actually use, ship, and learn from.

THE BEGINNING

Finding my way into product

I started as someone obsessed with why things work the way they do. Product management gave me a home, the intersection of people, technology, and real problems worth solving.

BUILDING AI PRODUCTS

From features to intelligent experiences

I moved deep into AI, learning to translate messy, cutting-edge technology into products people trust. Data, experimentation, and a bias for shipping became my toolkit.

DISNEY

Leading Conversational AI

At Disney I lead Conversational AI, building Ai Agent experiences at scale, measuring satisfaction obsessively, and proving that great AI is invisible when it just works.

TEACHING

Educator & speaker

Teaching Product Management and AI, I found the work I love most: helping people understand AI, and watching them get excited about the future.

5
TODAY

Coaching & community

Now I coach product leaders and build a community of AI builders, because the technology only matters if the people around it grow with it.

WHAT I BELIEVE

The values behind the work

Human first

Technology should make people more capable, not more anxious. I lead with empathy, for teams, users, and learners.

Learn in the open

I share what I know freely. A rising tide lifts everyone, and the best ideas come from a community learning together.

Build for impact

Not features for their own sake. I measure success by outcomes, satisfaction, and the growth of the people I work with.
