About

I build AI Agents that do the real work. I've taken AI products from 0-to-1 and scaled them to millions of users. As a Staff Product Manager, I lead end-to-end strategy and execution across AI innovation and Payments. I built agentic layer that lets millions of small businesses invoice, collect, and manage cash flow through natural language. My mission is simple yet ambitious: to make AI and financial technology a force multiplier for small businesses—the backbone of our economy—helping them thrive in a world where operational complexity too often stands in the way of passion. I bring deep customer empathy and data-driven decision making to every product I lead, aligning engineering, design, and go-to-market teams to deliver experiences that scale with impact. With an MBA from Kellogg in Strategy & Technology Management and over 5 years of management consulting experience across the US, Europe, and the Middle East, I offer a unique blend of strategic vision, product depth, and technical fluency. From launching features that used by millions to architecting GenAI-powered financial workflows, I thrive at the intersection of business goals and emerging technology. Currently, I’m focused on the practical application of Generative AI to simplify complex business tasks—translating cutting-edge models into real value for end users. Areas of Expertise: - AI Evals and LLM evaluation framework - AI Agent product strategy (zero-to-one and at scale) - Generative AI & MCP-first system design - Payments, SMB Fintech, digital invoicing - Customer-centric product development - Cross-functional leadership (Design, Data, Eng, GTM) - Growth strategy and product analytics
