About Me

Building Products That Drive Engagement

I care about products where user activation, retention, and onboarding directly determine outcomes and where getting the funnel right makes all the difference.

Senior Product Management

Seasoned PM with a track record of taking 0-to-1 products from concept to production, owning complex roadmaps, and navigating ambiguity in fast-moving organizations.

Multi-Step User Journeys

Deep experience designing onboarding funnels, activation flows, and multi-step experiences, from identity verification to marketplace signup; that reduce drop-off and improve completion rates.

AI-Enabled Product Strategy

Skilled at identifying where AI adds real leverage: pre-decision summarization, pattern surfacing, anomaly detection, and human-in-the-loop routing - not AI for its own sake.

Consumer Product & Two-Sided Marketplaces

Hands-on experience owning both sides of marketplaces; driving consumer activation, retention loops, and growth experimentation while balancing supply-side health and engagement metrics.

API & Platform Thinking

Comfortable in the technical stack, writing clear API specs, collaborating on data models, and building products that play well in a larger platform ecosystem.

Cross-Functional Leadership

Trusted partner to engineering, design, data science, ops, and executives. Translates strategy into actionable sprints while keeping the broader vision in focus.

Beyond the Product Brief

Outside of product work, I am genuinely curious about how systems, technical or human, can be made to work better. That shows up in how I approach poker strategy, how I think about sports analytics, and in the side projects I pick up just to learn something new.

Featured Work

Featured Products

From acquired consumer products to AI-enabled workflow platforms.

FounderTwo-Sided MarketplaceConsumer ActivationMobile Product

DeliverHere — Two-Sided Apartment Navigation Platform

⭐Acquired Product

A mobile platform connecting delivery drivers and apartment residents; property-specific map data and unit-level guidance that improved outcomes on both sides of the marketplace.

Problem Statement

Last-mile delivery failed at the apartment-community layer: drivers couldn't navigate beyond entrances, and residents had no visibility into when deliveries would actually arrive.

Consumer ProductOCRNotificationsHealthcare UX

Prescription Tracking App Concept

Product Concept

A medication tracking app concept with manual entry, OCR-assisted prescription capture, reminders, calendar views, and notification support.

Problem Statement

Managing multiple prescriptions across refill cycles is error-prone for patients, especially for those on complex medication regimens without dedicated caregiver support.

FounderPropTechVendor DirectoryB2B Marketplace

Vendment — Online Vendor Listing Service

⭐Acquired Product

An online PropTech vendor search platform for apartment owners, developers, and managers (ODMs) to discover PropTech vendors who offer innovative products and services in the industry.

Problem Statement

ODMs did not have a centralized platform to discover and compare PropTech vendors and PropTech vendors needed a centralized platform to showcase their products and services.

AI ProductField ServiceWorkflow OrchestrationAPI Integration

Pre-Visit Intelligence MVP

Featured ProjectAI MVP

Built and deployed an AI-powered MVP that generates technician briefings to improve first-time fix rates and reduce repeat service visits.

Problem Statement

Field technicians arrive on-site without complete context; missing customer history, part availability signals, or risk flags — leading to repeat visits and lower first-time fix rates.
