I’m a Product Manager and 3x founder with experience building products across startups, SaaS, and large-scale enterprise environments. I specialize in connecting real customer needs with emerging AI capabilities.

The longer version

At Amazon, I drive cross-functional launches for Private Brands, leading initiatives that blend physical and digital products and developing internal AI and data tools that streamline operations. Before Amazon, I built and scaled products from zero to launch as a founder and Head of Product, guiding small teams through discovery, execution, and growth.

Since 2022, I’ve focused heavily on generative AI—building projects like Spellforge.ai for LLM evaluation, ScamDetect for AI scam-call detection, and Resuumi for résumé optimization. Each strengthened my ability to translate technical progress into products that deliver real user value.

I thrive in fast-moving teams that value customer discovery, data fluency, and 0-1 execution.

Associate Consultant

A storyteller by both passion and trade, I translate my love of good stories and great language into the results my clients need--whether delivering compelling written content for use in sales enablement and marketing, garnering stellar audience reviews for ghostwritten presentations and high-impact videos, driving live and virtual event registrations, or landing new product offerings.

Though my career focus has been on technology events, my experience and education are diverse. I am as comfortable in the literary and non-profit world as I am working the meeting rooms of enterprise corporations. My degree in, and lifelong passion for, environmental sciences and sustainability allow me to easily translate my tech industry and communications background to endeavors that address our current climate crises.

My broad skill set in content strategy and creation, project management, and the marketing and production of large-scale events and videos lends itself to almost any industry.

Past clients and employers have praised my ability to quickly ramp up in new roles or industries, my exceptional organization and autonomy while working remotely, and my deeply strategic approach to content planning and creation.
