About

I help enterprises turn messy, manual workflows into automated AI-powered solutions. As an AI Solutions Consultant at Duvo, I lead discovery sessions with business stakeholders, translate complex processes into agent configurations, and take AI agents from prototype to production. Across tools like ERPs, portals, spreadsheets, and email systems. Before Duvo, I spent 4+ years at SpotMe managing a $1.5M ARR portfolio of 30+ enterprise customers in pharma and financial services. Running everything from onboarding and QBRs to $50–350K RFP responses and contract negotiations. Before that, I led product design at a B2B SaaS pricing startup from Series A, running user research, prototyping, and cross-functional delivery. What makes me different: I combine hands-on technical skills (Python, SQL, REST APIs, Rails) with real customer-facing experience (solution design, consultative selling, stakeholder management) and a product design background (UX research, prototyping, design thinking). I don't just configure solutions. I understand the business problem, the user experience, and the technical architecture.
