I build my own products, and will help you ship yours.

18+ years in product and engineering across fintech, payments, identity, and AI.

These days I split my time between things I'm building myself and fractional work with teams that need a product or tech lead in the room.

Where my time goes

Helping others ship

Fractional work

An experienced operator, for the projects that need one

I work with startups, service businesses, nonprofits, and solo founders. I'm doing the work alongside the team, not just advising from the side.

I grew up in Barbados, left for grad school in the US, and have since worked out of New York, San Francisco, London, and Singapore. Big banks, large payments companies, and some high-growth startups along the way.

I'm happiest when I'm shipping. Code, decisions, prototypes, posts. Whatever moves things forward. Outside of work I'm into photography, travel, and hiking.
