About me.

There are cathedrals everywhere for those with the eyes to see.

I’ve chased my curiosity across startups—in AI, crypto, VC, privacy-tech, ed-tech—and it’s taught me how to empathize with users, find order in chaos, and ship fast.

When I’m not refining flows, I’m producing electronic music , cooking 🍛, or participating in hackathons 💻 across NYC.

Recently, I’ve picked up running 🏃‍♂️ and lost 15 pounds. If I had a little more money, I’d join a BJJ gym (I’m looking for my next PD role 👀).

My fondest memories are of being in nature 🌄 and going on adventures with my closest friends 👯. I try to bring those good vibes—camaraderie and purpose—to my work.
