Research to product
Translate emerging technical capabilities into applications, roadmaps, and production systems.
Applied AI · Product · Engineering
I turn emerging AI capabilities into systems that work in the real world.
At Stanford GSB, I lead Generative AI initiatives and software and solution engineering teams, building chatbots and research applications. Previously, I helped scale SaaS platforms, products, and global engineering organizations.
How I operate
Technical leadership
Lead engineering and solution teams while staying close to architecture, tradeoffs, and execution.
Scale & operations
Build global teams and guide complex programs from early ambiguity through deployment and growth.
Human impact
Start with the people, workflows, and consequences surrounding the technology, not the technology alone.
