I build products
people love.
Product leader by day, nights-and-weekends builder. I've spent my career taking products from 0→1 and beyond at consumer and enterprise companies, with stops at Fortune 500s and scrappy startups through four acquisitions and one IPO. Currently leading the Spoken Word team at Amazon Music.

a word game for the obsessed

Snappy
screenshots, but smarter
A native macOS app for capturing, marking up, and sharing screenshots in seconds. Built-in text recognition pulls copy out of any image, and AI workflows let you ask questions about what’s on screen.
Shepherd
where product thinking meets AI coding
A VS Code extension that brings product thinking into the loop with AI coding tools. Plan features, scope work, and review code with structured prompts that turn Claude into a teammate, not just autocomplete.
Corner House Makeup Booker
a favor for an art studio I love
A self-serve scheduler I built for a local kids art studio so families can rebook missed classes without an email chain. Three-step wizard handles eligibility rules, real-time availability, and confirmation emails.
