About

The hardest problem in enterprise AI isn't capability: it's trust. When an agent acts on a real invoice, a real payment, a real customer, someone has to answer for that decision. That's the problem I work on. I lead product for an enterprise agentic AI platform for finance operations, in production internally, in pilots and deployment with enterprise clients. I own it end to end: vision, roadmap, an 18-person cross-functional team, and the standards that make agent behaviour defensible. Before this, I spent two-plus years shaping product and GTM strategy for one of the world's largest technology companies' GenAI platform: competitive intelligence across the agentic ecosystem, translated into roadmap and positioning decisions. The route here matters: 13 years moving with the industry: finance and consulting (EY, Deloitte, JPMorgan, GitLab), then analytics delivery, then AI. Each phase brought better tooling to the same enduring question: how do enterprises make consequential decisions well? I write here about agent reliability, evaluation, and what it actually takes to put AI into production. MBA (Finance) · MIT IDSS, Data Science & Machine Learning.
