SUMMARY
Founder, executive, and builder with an unusual range. I have scaled businesses inside one of the world's largest enterprise software companies, built ventures from scratch across fintech, AI, and premium skincare, and advised founders and boards across multiple industries. What connects all of it is an ability to operate across worlds that do not usually talk to each other and to translate between them. I am now focused on luxury, beauty, and consumer brands, where that ability to connect technology and craft creates the most value.
