01 · Profile

The intersection of technology and the boardroom.

I lead at the seam where deep technology meets business strategy. Over 9+ years, I've moved from building the models to defining the roadmaps that fund them — authoring 45 business cases that secured VP-level approval for 12 strategic initiatives across Amazon's Retail, Devices, Prime Video and AWS organizations.

My work is measured in outcomes the C-suite cares about: a $20M ARR portfolio at Oracle, 44% CTR lift at Amazon, a 3× reduction in OpEx for 70M customers, and go-to-market cycles shortened by 25%.

I build the teams that deliver it. I've mentored 51 engineers and set the AI product vision for entire organizations. My STEM MBA at Ohio State's Fisher College formalizes the finance, strategy and product-management craft behind that instinct.

"Translate technical complexity into actionable business plans — then build the team that ships them."

07 · Leadership Philosophy

How I lead and decide.

Start from the true problem

Great strategy comes from uncovering the real challenge behind the stated one. I frame ambiguity into structured, testable hypotheses before committing resources.

Decide with data, act with conviction

Rational, evidence-based decision-making under uncertainty is the core of the craft. I pair quantitative rigor with the judgment to move decisively.

Build people, not just products

Mentoring 51 engineers taught me that durable results come from teams that grow. I invest in talent, coaching and a culture of path-breaking work.

Optimize for what endures

I care about the long-term scalability of a solution and lasting organizational change — delivering results that endure long after a project concludes.
