I build secure software products and Shopify apps from real seller needs.

What I'm looking for

I'm open to product leadership opportunities in software development and security, especially difficult cross-company work where I can connect customer needs, GTM plans, and engineering realities.

I've led security, infrastructure, and enterprise product work at Microsoft and Samsara, including Office Secure by Default, Intune device management, software supply chain integrity, and least-privilege strategy. I bridge GTM plans and engineering realities to deliver high-profile cross-company projects under challenging constraints.

I also build Shopify apps through Mad Valley Productions and run Sugar Moon Gardens, a licensed nursery and cut-flower farm. Working directly with sellers shapes my product decisions, from PopUp: Sell by Weight to tools for releases, inventory, printing, mapping, and taxes.
