About
I spend my days at the seam between what an AI or data product should do and how it actually gets built — shaping scope, pressure-testing plans, and driving the execution that turns promising ideas into production software. I care about the boring stuff that makes delivery real: clear milestones, honest risk tracking, tight feedback loops, and the unglamorous operational work that turns a kickoff into a finished product.
Selected work
Owning end-to-end delivery of enterprise AI and data engagements — from discovery through production rollout, with cross-functional teams across product, engineering, and customer success.
Led teams that shipped data platforms, ML products, and AI-powered workflows for customers in healthcare, retail, and financial services.
I write delivery plans the same way I'd write code — precise, testable, and small enough to ship. Vision is cheap; the craft is in the cadence of delivery.
Foundations in business, technology, and the overlap between the two.
