I'm a Product Manager with a UX focus who loves building at the edge of what's possible. AI-powered products are where I see the future heading, and that's the kind of work that excites me most!

By day, I lead platform rebuilds, define design systems, and ship thoughtful features. By night (in what little free time I have as a new dad), I'm building projects with Claude Code, including this portfolio site!

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. Additionally, I am always plugged into communities and channels on Reddit and YouTube respectively 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!
