From First Principles
to Shipped Products.

I build products and think about them the way most people think about businesses — from the economics up.

My background in Mechanical Engineering with a Minor in Finance gives me an unusual lens: I can model unit economics before touching a feature list, size a market before writing a spec, and think about a business's incentive structure before designing its product. Most people pick one side. I'm trying to be useful across both.

End-to-end product ownership: from market research and scoping to shipping. Finance-literate enough to think about the business before the feature.
