About

I’m a Geospatial Engineer and Architect who leverages technology and design to create sustainable, impact driven solutions. I develop tools that enable better decision making and informed planning across both community and business contexts. Currently part of the CXO Office at an early-stage startup, I drive product initiatives and manage cross-functional teams across design, operations, and delivery bridging spatial insight with strategic execution. My path is unconventional on purpose. I trained as an architect and a geospatial engineer. Spatial thinking on how data, systems, and people fit together turns out to be exactly what building good products demands.
