How I work

What I bring to the table

1

Curious & collaborative

I drill into the details to solve things the right way, alongside your team.

2

Technical to business

I translate complexity into the language stakeholders make decisions in. I crossed over from engineering to product.

3

Connective tissue

Compliance, finance, and ops in from day one. The seams between teams are where things break.

What I do

Four ways I work with teams

Assess your product & tech needs

Your entry point before making a bigger investment.

  • Clear diagnosis of product and technical gaps
  • Prioritized recommendations for first moves
  • Build vs. buy assessment
  • Preliminary 3 to 6 month roadmap
  • Compliance considerations
Enable payments & fintech

10+ years building in payments, compliance, and fintech at PayPal, Braintree, Olo, and Paxos.

  • Embedded payment products
  • Stripe setup through complex payout systems
  • UX and back-office integration
  • Legal, ops, and compliance partnership on regulatory requirements
Integrate AI into your strategy & workflows

From market entry to internal automation.

  • Eliminating manual workflows
  • Internal automation tool design
  • AI use case validation
  • Practical AI integration guidance
Partner as ongoing product & tech leader

I step in to fill the gap until you can build out your exec team. Doing the work, not just advising.

  • Dedicated capacity reserved for your team
  • Ongoing priority alignment
  • Hands-on execution: requirements, user stories, documentation
  • Direct collaboration with your engineering team
  • Strategic guidance on roadmaps and launches
