I'm a product manager with a background in software engineering. I've spent most of my career in fintech: building 0→1 mortgage servicing software at Valon, and launching new payment rails at Current. Before moving into product, I built iOS software at Apple, American Express, and Blue Apron.
I studied Computer Science and Mathematics at the University of Virginia, where I co-founded the university's inaugural hackathon. My senior thesis was in machine learning, exploring genre classification on the Million Song Dataset.
I care about building products that work reliably, and thrive on highly autonomous teams.
