I’m a Technical Program Manager with an engineering background, a productivity streak, and a deep love of making messy systems easier to understand.
I care about thoughtful process, clear communication, strong documentation, remote-first collaboration, and team cultures built on trust, empathy, feedback, and transparency. I’m happiest helping teams clarify priorities, reduce friction, improve workflows, and build products as elegantly and efficiently as possible.
My experience spans agency work, in-house product teams, enterprise-scale apps, design systems, and platform work, giving me a practical understanding of both the technical details and the human systems that help good work happen.
