About

With over 18 years of software engineering experience, I currently lead as Director of Engineering at GoTo, helping teams deliver outcomes that drive organizational success. I’m passionate about building scalable solutions, empowering teams, and fostering collaboration to spark innovation and measurable results. What truly drives me is the belief that there’s always room for improvement, in the way we work, think, and build. Every day is an opportunity to grow and evolve. I enjoy exploring new technologies and weaving insights from diverse fields including science, math, technology, AI, health, longevity, economics, philosophy, management, leadership, social science, and human behavior. Staying curious about the world allows me to bring fresh perspectives to my work and inspires the way I lead. Leadership, to me, is about creating environments where people thrive, unlocking the potential of great talent and cultivating a culture of curiosity, progress, and excellence. Outside of work, you’ll often find me binge-reading across a wide range of topics, picking up new perspectives, and challenging myself to think differently. Learning isn’t just something I do, it’s part of who I am.
