Hey there 👋

Most personal sites are LinkedIn summaries. This isn't that.

I've spent a decade building products in EdTech, AI, and HRTech. The through-line is unlocking human potential, helping one million people design deeply fulfilling careers.

How I got here

The industrial-age playbook of school, cubicle, then pension never felt like mine. Here's the path that got me here.

01

Most Things Fail

Curiosity pushed me to ship everything from a community app to a 3D-printed chocolate startup, an e-commerce coffee brand, and a government policy role. Most fizzled fast. Best MBA money can't buy.

02

Zero Roadmap, Full Send

My first big break: Techstars. I joined mentorship-driven accelerator programs and learned to build with zero roadmap and full conviction.

03

People Over Platforms

My first edtech startup: Workit, a career community for tech talent. Launched three cohort-based programs with 87% CSAT. Built a mentor roster from Stripe, Netflix, and GitLab.

04

Build What Actually Matters

I then joined Tomorrow University, where I shipped an AI tutor to personalize learning journeys. This sharpened my mission: unlock human potential at the crossroads of product, growth, EdTech, and HRTech.

05

A New Chapter

Now I'm building Jobgether, an AI platform matching people to remote work, as Head of Product and co-founder. The most direct shot I've had at the mission. Every feature runs on AI, and I'm hands on with all of it.

Selected work

The most direct shot at the mission yet: I own the product end to end as co-founder.

  • Own product end-to-end as co-founder and Head of Product.
  • Every feature runs on AI; hands-on across discovery, design, and delivery.
  • Building the matching engine that pairs talent to genuinely-fitting remote roles.

Built Tomorrow U's first AI-powered learning coach from scratch.

  • Hit 80% student adoption in the first month and cut support tickets by 20%.
  • Shipped an onboarding flow that increased activation by 80% in 60 days, with PQL scoring baked in.
  • Led the roadmap with the Founder/CPO, tying every feature to quarterly OKRs and our North Star.

Drove activation across a two-sided skills-assessment marketplace.

  • Owned the activation funnel for employers running their first assessment.
  • Ran a continuous experiment program across onboarding, pricing, and email.
  • Partnered with data to define and move the activation North Star.

A career community for tech talent, built 0 to 1 alongside two co-founders.

  • Launched three cohort-based programs with 87% CSAT.
  • Built a mentor roster from Stripe, Netflix, and GitLab.
  • Designed the community and curriculum from the ground up.
