Operator & Problem-Solver | From Zero-to-One to Scale | Driving Strategic Transformation
About
I’ve always been drawn to solving problems that make systems work better — whether it was building a startup in college to simplify how students shared notes, or today, helping organizations align strategy with execution. What started as curiosity for efficiency has grown into a career of turning vision into outcomes and bringing structure to ambiguity. Over the years, I’ve worked across product operations, business strategy, and organizational leadership, shaping initiatives that drive adoption, streamline processes, and empower teams to perform at their best. From zero-to-one experiments at startups to scaling programs at established organizations, my focus has consistently been on creating clarity, aligning stakeholders, and building systems that last. What excites me most is operating at the intersection of strategy and execution — helping leaders see the big picture while ensuring the details don’t get lost. I thrive on simplifying complexity, unlocking team potential, and translating ideas into measurable impact. At the core, I’m passionate about building organizations that can grow, adapt, and thrive — whether through strategic planning, operational leadership, or driving transformation at scale.
