About

I lead and scale products at the intersection of business, technology, and human behavior. I currently own product strategy for a $500M+ global commerce - acquisition portfolio at Amazon, spanning 90M+ devices and millions of customers. I drive how commerce experiences evolve at scale—balancing growth, customer experience, and platform integrity across a complex, multi-device ecosystem. Over the past year, I’ve delivered $35M+ in incremental revenue by scaling product-led growth, improving performance at billion-scale volumes, and advancing AI and technology powered systems that enable faster decision-making and execution. My path into product has been non-linear. I began in HR, leading strategy for large global organizations and applying data and systems thinking to complex business problems. I later partnered with senior leadership as Chief of Staff, shaping organizational strategy and investment decisions. This foundation continues to inform how I operate—bringing a strong lens on systems, experimentation, and driving alignment at scale. I’m particularly focused on building and scaling platforms that operate at high complexity and global reach, and on shaping how AI transforms both customer experience and business systems.
