04 / About
Operator, researcher, systems builder.
I have spent more than a decade working across business operations, marketing, creative production, and digital systems — first inside companies, then building and running my own agency.
Today my work sits at the intersection of business operations, AI products, and applied research. I am interested in complex environments where coordination, incentives, technology, and human judgment have to work together.
The common thread is systems: understanding how they behave, where they fail, and how to turn that understanding into practical models, workflows, and products.
