About

I am a two-time founder and seasoned growth leader with a proven track record of scaling organizations through rigorous, data-driven product development and operational excellence. Having navigated the startup journey from founding to exit and leading product and growth at high-growth fintech companies—including scaling AUM to $110M+—I specialize in building sustainable systems and high-performing teams. My approach combines entrepreneurial grit with deep technical product intuition to drive long-term business value and operational clarity.
