About

I'm a founder, startup executive, and product leader.

For the last 15 years I've taken technical products from 0 to 1 across AI, fintech, and SaaS. I write code, design products, hire engineers, run sales conversations, build financial models, and ship.

Now I'm building AI products independently and consulting as a Fractional Head of Product for a Japan stablecoin infrastructure team on AI-native compliance, plus a Fractional GM & Product Lead for DeFi protocols through Outside Context Projects.
