I have spent the last 20 years building data, analytics, and AI-driven products across engineering, product, growth, and operations roles.
My career has always sat at the intersection of data and business: first as a data engineer, later as a founder and growth leader, and today as a hands-on AI systems builder. This gives me a practical understanding of how data products are built, adopted, scaled, and translated into business outcomes
