About

Engineering executive with 18+ years of experience building and scaling mission-critical systems, leading global engineering teams, and driving innovation across 0→1 and 1→N product lifecycles. I’ve led high-performance teams at companies like Meta, Uber, and Walmart—delivering complex, customer-facing systems in commerce, consumer tech, and fintech that operate at global scale and drive billions in revenue. I work closely with C-suite and cross-functional leaders to define vision, align execution, and ship products that truly matter. Passionate about developing strong leaders and fostering inclusive, high-ownership cultures where people thrive. I believe great engineering orgs are built on trust, clarity, and a relentless focus on outcomes.
