Welcome! I’m an engineering leader with hands-on experience across growth, monetization and product development at both startups and large tech companies. I’ve built teams, shipped experiments at scale, and helped turn early ideas into meaningful products. I care about impact, fast learning, and creating space for others to grow.
I’m Director of Engineering for Growth at Linktree, where I’ve helped scale the platform through rapid experimentation and product-led growth. Previously at Meta, I was the tech lead for teams behind business messaging, ads and video monetization, real-time infrastructure, and grew multiple products into billion-dollar businesses used by billions of users. At Sencha, I worked on the company’s cloud platform. I also helped build Zite, a personalized news app acquired by CNN, built secure identity tools at Sxip, and co-founded Netbill, a multi-tenant ISP platform.
