Updated Jul 18, 2026
I build products and lead product teams. I'm currently open to product leadership roles.
I joined Affable as its first product hire, built its AI creator search, creator CRM, and integrated workflows, and drove the company through its acquisition by Bazaarvoice in 2023. At Bazaarvoice I led the Creator Marketing portfolio — two PMs, four designers, and four engineering teams — and shipped integrated sampling and the company's first creator payments platform.
I also build and ship my own products — I design them, write the specs and test plans, and direct AI agents through the engineering. Some of them are here.
My full work history is on the Journey page.
