Philosophy

I strive to be a 'full-stack unit,' able to take a product or feature from idea to launch on my own. I've worked across product, growth, design, and software, which helps me skip the back-and-forth between teams and avoid clunky handoffs. The result is faster, smoother, and more cohesive work.

Motivations

Many smart people join early-stage startups, knowing they’ll work harder, earn less, and still likely fail. This is usually due to personal motivations.

So here's my motivation: Every day feels meaningful, and you have the freedom to build, with both your personal and company success largely in your hands. It’s a chance to practice, improve, and test your skills—almost like a sport. Each day holds the potential to be make-or-break, and I think that’s an awesome way to spend my time.
