About
I like building leverage, and I care about what it does for the people using it. I’m at my best helping engineers grow into larger scopes while staying close enough to the work to help shape it.
How I lead
I help teams turn clear priorities into shipped work. I narrow scope, break large initiatives into useful increments, and work through technical decisions and dependencies so engineers can keep moving. I make bugs and operational improvements part of delivery so they don’t keep slowing us down.
I give engineers context and room to own decisions, while staying involved where I can help. I want the team to become less dependent on me over time, with more people able to lead projects, coordinate across teams, and shape technical direction.
I develop people through meaningful work. I create opportunities to take on greater scope, coach along the way, and make their contributions visible.
During change, I listen first, then establish direction. I make ownership and tradeoffs explicit so the team knows what matters, what can wait, and what it can commit to delivering.
Before software
Before software, I was a music producer, translating ideas into sounds that made people happy. Building products draws on that same instinct: making something people connect with and enjoy using.
I’m drawn to work where I can see how what we build matters to the people using it.
