About

I’m an engineering leader passionate about building high-agency, autonomous teams that deliver scalable, reliable systems and measurable business outcomes. Over the past decade, I've led engineering teams across Fintech and Healthtech to accelerate delivery, optimize processes, and implement AI-driven workflows that reduce manual effort and improve operational efficiency. I excel at mentoring engineers into independent contributors, aligning technical execution with strategic roadmaps, and fostering a culture of collaboration, accountability, and continuous improvement. Experienced in cloud infrastructure, scalable architectures, and regulated environments, I combine technical expertise with a people-first leadership approach to drive both team growth and business impact.
