About

Experienced software product manager and technology leader. Pragmatic and results driven. I currently lead a team of AI scientists and developers. We train AI models for use in the construction and building products industry. Leveraging the latest advancements in computer vision and NLP we meaningfully streamline business processes. Multiple projects generated 50-90% reduction in manual workflows. I lead the collaboration across business units, define the AI roadmap, and guide the projects through implementation. My team also is responsible (operationally and budgetary) for the highly scalable cloud production infrastructure the AI APIs run on.
