About
I am an engineering leader with over seven years of hands-on software engineering and people management experience. I enjoy partnering with stakeholders to uncover challenges, design robust solutions, and foster agile teams that deliver high-quality software. I am now ready to step back into a hands-on engineering role, bringing a pragmatic, growth-focused mindset and a servant-leadership approach to the work.
My track record includes building data platforms, leading multi-disciplinary teams, and delivering customer-focused products across global collaborations. I thrive in fast-paced environments where technical excellence, clear communication, and strong product sense are essential to success.
