My Story

My career began with early exposure to a technology model that was just beginning to take shape. In 2006, I worked with a small startup planning a data center that would provide raw computing power to organizations and users who needed more processing capacity than was practical or reasonable to maintain in-house. The venture never took off, but the experience sparked a lasting interest in technology and, more importantly, in the connection between what businesses need to accomplish and what technology makes possible. That perspective led me into technology consulting and eventually product management, where I spent the next decade and a half working at the intersection of business and technology. As technology evolved, so did my career—from infrastructure and enterprise systems to data, analytics and machine learning. Throughout that progression, I continued moving closer to the technology itself: understanding how it works, partnering with technical teams and turning emerging capabilities into practical solutions. My work in financial technology deepened that perspective. I worked closely with engineers, data scientists and business leaders to build products and solutions around financial data, analytics and machine learning. Those experiences showed me the potential of combining domain expertise with increasingly sophisticated data and technology to improve how organizations make decisions. Completing my M.S. in Applied Data Science brought those experiences together. Through hands-on work in data engineering, machine learning, deep learning and AI applications, I developed the technical depth to complement the product and technology leadership experience I had built throughout my career. Today, I am focused on bringing those pieces together: the perspective of a product leader, the domain experience of a financial services technologist, and the technical foundation of a data and AI practitioner. I am interested in building practical systems that connect emerging technology with meaningful business problems and moving organizations forward in an increasingly AI-driven landscape.

The theme throughout my career has remained consistent, building the bridge between emerging technology and real-world problems.

Product, Technology and Data

I don't just manage machine learning and AI products — I build them to understand how they actually work. My background combines 14+ years of product leadership in financial services with hands-on experience in machine learning, data and technology. I use that combination to translate technical complexity into products that solve real business problems.

Current Focus

Learning to Design Modern AI Applications

ⓘ

Understanding how orchestration, agent specialization, memory and feedback can work together to create more capable and reliable AI systems, with a focus on integrating these patterns into practical decision-support workflows.

Exploring multi-agent system architectures for building AI applications that coordinate specialized agents, memory, feedback loops, tools and existing business processes.

Understanding Human Action with AI

ⓘ

Combining my background in competitive swimming with my interest in video-based machine learning, sequence modeling and intelligent coaching systems, while exploring how advances in accelerated computing can make more sophisticated models and larger-scale experimentation practical.

Researching how computer vision and deep learning can understand human movement in sports, while exploring accelerated computing and how GPU/TPU architectures can expand model capacity, training efficiency and experimentation.
