I'm a Product Manager who builds. Most of my time goes to building AI-powered products and shipping with AI tooling, and that's the work I care about most. I love working at the edge of what's possible, and right now that edge is AI!

These days I'm building on my own time, using Claude Code to ship real things: an open-source AI meeting tool that runs entirely inside a Claude chat, an AI-powered photography app, and websites (including this one). Before that I was at Grayscale Investments, where I led the firm's AI initiatives and built a Claude-powered platform that automates their due diligence process, along with a firm-wide catalog of AI skills. I also led platform rebuilds, defined design systems, and drove AI adoption across the firm.

I've been a tinkerer my whole life. Started making YouTube videos in middle school and taught myself to edit in Premiere and After Effects. That led me to start a photography and videography side business in college, while earning my BS in Digital Media Production. Built my first PC as a teenager, and I've been helping friends build theirs ever since. These days I'm working on an AI-powered photography mobile app, and a custom Pokémon ROM hack with an original storyline. I also stay plugged into communities on Reddit and YouTube to keep up with where tech is heading.

Outside of the tech space I also love playing basketball, going skiing with my wife & friends, cooking (I love to experiment & learn new methods), running (I ran & finished the Marine Corps marathon in 2024), gaming (mostly single player games these days), and of course I still enjoy taking and editing photos when I can.

What drives me at work: I'm big on relationships and honest communication. I'm the PM who grabs coffee with engineers when they're in the office and keeps the conversation open so we can collaborate with full context. The best products come from teams that trust each other!
