About Me
I'm a hands-on Product Leader who likes to build and prototype solutions that users love. Whether I'm training custom speech models or architecting embedding pipelines, I believe the best PMs not only know how to use AI but also to build with it.
I started my career in the Navy, turning wrenches, and operating nuclear power plants on aircraft carriers. Today, I focus on identifying unique opportunities to solve user problems that can only be solved now thanks to AI.
Currently pursuing my MBA at Columbia Business School, I'm focused on AI product incubation and entrepreneurship. When I'm not building products, you'll find me spending time with my wife and our 3 cats. I'm a huge fan of indie films, theater, and concerts.
