About

I’m a product leader with over a decade of experience across automotive tech and fintech, focused on building scalable API platforms, partner integrations, and developer-centric products. At Tekion, I currently lead Product for the Automotive Partner Cloud (APC) — the infrastructure that powers all self-serve integrations and partner onboarding/relationship management across OEMs, dealers, and third-party partners. This platform is central to driving API consistency, accelerating integration delivery, and enabling ecosystem-wide visibility. Previously, I led Retail Integrations at Tekion for over four years, delivering third-party and OEM integrations across the US, UK, and Canada. I also led Tekion’s Payments Platform through its development and up to the launch of Tekion Pay, before fully transitioning into platform and integration leadership. Earlier in my career, I built a Partner Platform in fintech that included a Payments API Platform, channel partnership tooling, and solutions for marketplace payouts and payment integrations. I thrive at the intersection of ecosystem scale, usability, and cross-functional execution, with a data-driven, outcome-oriented approach to product management.
