About

As Chief Product Officer at Multiverse, I’m helping the workforce adapt to the biggest technology shift of this century: AI. Our mission is to mitigate the risk and maximize the opportunity of AI by training people in the flow of work, building data fluency, technical depth, and practical AI skills on real projects. Multiverse is betting on machines that make humans smarter, providing enablement through an applied, on-the-job learning model rooted in apprenticeship culture. I build products and cultures that scale, from Multiverse’s upskilling platform transforming workforce capability, to agentic AI systems at Amazon changing how content is created, to the audio monetization engine that helped guide Spotify’s evolution through IPO and international expansion into a global audio platform.
