I've spent my career at the intersection of product, engineering, and strategy. I started as an engineer at MLB.com, building web applications that served over 1.5 billion visitors. I founded Hot Potato (acquired by Facebook), ran operations at Nodejitsu (acquired by GoDaddy), and led product at Fabric (acquired by Gerber Life) and PROOF (acquired by Yuga Labs).
Zero-to-one startups through public companies. Consumer internet, fintech, Web3, enterprise SaaS. Four of those companies exited.
Now I get product and engineering teams actually using AI. Not the conference-talk version. The real version. Your team changes how they work, the tools are set up for your context, and the results show up in the work product.
I've been fully AI-native since 2024, running my own work through the same systems I set up for clients. I embed with your team, work on real outcomes, and when I'm done, the capability is theirs. I know what high performance with these tools looks like firsthand.
If you're a CEO or CPO at a tech company where the team has the tools but nothing's changed, I can show you what the path forward looks like.
