About

We build AI products, software, and engineering teams for startups and growing businesses. Over the last few years, I’ve worked across product, engineering, hiring, delivery, and business development. My role is usually wherever the bottleneck is. I spend most of my time helping teams ship faster, improve how they work, and turn ideas into products Before Algorithm, I worked across product management, engineering management, quality assurance, and software consulting. That journey taught me that most business problems aren’t technical problems. They’re usually communication, process, or decision-making problems disguised as technical ones

Algorithm

Co-Founder & COO

Aug 2025 – Present · 10 mos · Remote

I co-founded Algorithm to build software and AI products that actually solve problems. I run operations, work with product and engineering teams, and make sure things get done without slowing anyone down.
Built and manage teams working on 10 projects at the same time, letting people own their work instead of micromanaging.
Set up processes so teams can move fast and focus on results, not endless meetings.
Worked with the CEO to define what we build, why we build it, and how we take it to clients.
Helped launch products that millions of people are using, while keeping the teams independent and accountable.
Mentored people to take ownership and make decisions without waiting for approval at every step.
