About

Building things that matter

I'm an engineering leader passionate about building scalable systems, empowering teams, and creating technology with measurable impact. Over the past decade I've led high-traffic consumer products, architected modern mobile ecosystems, and driven engineering excellence - from game streaming to open-source data protocols for agriculture.

I believe great engineering leadership is about clarity, mentorship, and scaling both systems and people. I'm driven by the challenge of turning complex technology into intuitive, empowering user experiences.

Currently exploring the intersection of agentic AI, mobile, and scalable systems - building the next generation of intelligent, user-centered products.
