Unique Qualities
Voracious reader
I average 50 books a year. Fiction teaches empathy. History teaches patterns. Both make me better at understanding what people actually need.
Early AI practitioner
Worked with data scientists and machine learning at Paysa and Kosmix before it was buzzy. I've seen what AI can actually do—and what it can't.
Manager-first, specialist-second
I've been building and leading teams since I was 19, long before I worked in tech. Management isn't something I fell into—it's how I'm wired.
Physical design background
Spent years in floral, costume, fashion, and interior design before tech. I learned color, texture, and composition with real materials—then brought that sensibility to pixels and products.
