Selected Work
I turn complex things into experiences people can feel.
Career
— Product, systems and AI
I work across product strategy, technology and user experience, currently building AI-enabled products at Jelou.
My role is to connect complex systems with experiences people can actually use.
— From products to ecosystems
At Shippify, my scope grew from individual product decisions to product strategy, platforms and teams.
I worked across routing, fleet management, scheduling, automations, operational tools and driver experiences.
Over time, the question became less “what should we build?” and more “what problem is worth solving?”
— Making complexity usable
I moved from building systems to shaping how people interact with them.
That meant understanding workflows, simplifying complexity and questioning what should exist before deciding how to build it.
— Understanding systems from the inside
I started as a software engineer.
That foundation still shapes how I think about products: through constraints, dependencies and the systems beneath the interface.
— Where it started
Computer Science, early technical roles and a lot of curiosity.
The tools changed.
The questions got bigger.
