I’m an engineering and product leader with 25 years of experience building great teams, shipping quality software, and solving problems that matter.
I've led teams and scaled products at Google, Shopify, and startups. I also co-founded Simple, a public health supporting 6 million patients. I help teams move fast with clarity and trust, building software that’s simple, solid, and human.
