About

Builder at heart. I love taking ideas from 0→1 testing fast, iterating faster, and compounding progress every day. Currently studying at MESA School of Business, where I’m focused on building scalable products at the intersection of AI, finance, and D2C. I’ve built brands and AI products that solve real problems and deliver real value - from financial planning to consumer experience. I thrive on curiosity, discipline, and execution. Whether it’s talking to users, managing operations, or designing growth loops. I enjoy being hands-on and learning through the build. Passionate about finance, venture capital, and quantitative investing, and constantly exploring how technology and product thinking can reshape the future of money and markets. Always up for conversations around building, scaling, and solving problems that matter.
