About

I’m a Product Leader who builds products that scale and teams that deliver real results. Over the last 17+ years in tech, I’ve worked across engineering, architecture, and product. That mix helps me build complex enterprise platforms without losing sight of the customer experience. Lately, my focus has been on Developer Experience and API products, creating systems that help companies turn APIs into a real growth engine through better discovery, governance, analytics, and adoption. What I do well:- • Lead with strategy, not just features • Build strong execution systems (clear priorities, metrics, and feedback loops) • Work closely with Engineering, Sales, Marketing, and Support • Prefer scalable platforms over one-off solutions Impact I’ve delivered:- • Built a self-service API platform from scratch used by global enterprises • Improved adoption and retention through product-led onboarding • Drove measurable results: +40% users, +18% ARR YoY, and reduced churn by 15% • Built and mentored high-performing product teams At the core, I care about building products that reduce friction, are easy to adopt, and create long-term value for customers. If you’re a founder, product enthusiast, or innovator, let’s connect and build something meaningful together.
