0-to-1 builder.  AI-fluent operator.  Clarity in complexity.

I'm excited by the thought of building things that make people's lives a little less frustrating. I turn messy, high-stakes problems into working things — with clarity, and nothing slipping through the cracks.

I'm looking for a senior Product Manager role at a hybrid or remote-friendly, mid-sized company (500-1000 people) where technology is the lever for social impact — improving access to mental health care, economic mobility, or other services for underserved communities. 
I want to lead discovery that uncovers real growth opportunities and own the execution to bring them to life.

About me

I thrive at turning ambiguity into clear action.

Whether it's launching AI computer vision features, scaling revenue growth through seller-facing work, or architecting an M&A integration roadmap — I get things done. Leadership teams value my ability to make complex ideas land with non-technical audiences and drive alignment across high-stakes work.

I'm also a founder. 

As co-founder and CEO of Rapid Assist, I'm building a platform that centers caregivers and speeds up hiring process for them so they can focus on providing care and less time on finding the roles that match their needs.

Strengths

What I bring to the table.

Technical product management Discovery & problem definition Ambiguity translation Stakeholder management Cross-functional leadership End-to-end execution
End-to-end execution

I own strategy and execution from roadmap to release. When something lands in my world, people know it'll get done — I'm obsessive about closing the loop.

Deep discovery, no shortcuts

I take a genuine step back to understand the problem before solving it. Partners appreciate the thoroughness — it's what makes everything downstream cleaner and lets me quickly become the subject matter expert.

Cross-functional leadership

I find what motivates each team, make them feel part of something bigger, and turn friction into forward momentum — including with the least technical stakeholders in the room.

Autonomous by default

Once goals are set, I chart the path. I bring structure and direction independently, with the flexibility to pivot as business needs evolve — no hand-holding required.

Stakeholder & partner trust

Whether it's a peer, a partner team, or a skeptic, I build real relationships. People trust my energy, empathy, and technical judgment — and the fact that I show up the same way every single time.
