# The mind behind the inventions.

I've been building AI products since before it was cool. A decade of turning emerging capabilities into products that change how people live and work — not by chasing what's possible, but by obsessing over what's needed.

I've led 0-to-1-to-scale AI products inside some of the world's most-used consumer platforms — setting the vision, designing the system architecture, embedding responsible AI as a competitive edge, and shipping experiences that reached hundreds of millions of people.

I operate where model capabilities, product design, and business model converge. That's where the most consequential decisions are made — and where the most interesting products are born.

## Built at

Mozilla · Firefox · Tinder · Dictionary.com · Accenture

## Principles

**Start with the people, not the hype.** The question is never "what can we build?" It's "what does someone actually need, and is AI genuinely the best way to meet that need?"

**Clarity is the job.** An LLM can generate a spec in seconds. What it can't do is own the consequences. The PM's edge is direction — crisp framing, the right constraints, the narrative that moves a team.

**Great AI feels human.** Capability is table stakes. The differentiator is products that meet people with care — that earn trust interaction by interaction.
