About

I help product leaders and leadership teams turn strategy into measurable business results—especially when execution, scale, or AI adoption becomes the bottleneck. I work across product strategy, operating models, prioritization, and AI-enabled workflows to improve decision quality and execution speed. The focus is durable outcomes, not shipping more for the sake of it. I’ve advised 25+ SaaS companies—including PE-backed and growth-stage teams—on product diligence, AI strategy, leadership development, and execution resets. Previously, I led product organizations at high-growth SaaS companies, including helping scale Aha! to $100M+ ARR and launching multiple 0→1 products. Today, I operate as a hands-on product and AI advisor to founders, product leaders, and boards at moments of inflection.

Experience

Founder

Feb 2026 – Present · 2 mos · Los Angeles, CA

We build and run PM operating systems via Claude Code that empower 5x product teams.
Your PMs use AI.
But without infrastructure,
it's just chat.
Your PMs re-explain the product every session. They edit generic outputs that miss the mark. They're chatting back and forth — not shipping. We build your entire PM workflow in an AI-first way in weeks. And your team is product at 5x their ability.
