About me

As an honors student at the University of Washington's Foster School of Business, I'm passionate about building products where technology, data, and user needs intersect. My background spans software development, AI/ML, and marketing, but my real interest lies in how these disciplines combine to create meaningful user experiences.

I approach challenges with a product mindset - understanding user pain points, collaborating across teams, and using data to inform strategy. My hands-on experience founding startups and leading teams has taught me that great products come from curiosity, iteration, and empathy.

Recently, I've been exploring how AI and automation can improve user experience in cybersecurity and digital commerce. I've also taken part in Expedia Group's Product Management Discovery Program, where I've learned how leading teams align customer needs with business goals to drive impact.

Ultimately, I aim to use my technical and business background to bridge the gap between users, design, and engineering - creating digital products that people love to use.
