What I'm looking for

I’m selectively open to remote engagements using AI-driven strategy and execution to maximize revenue and outpace competitors—and to equity-based co-founder roles that own product-to-growth end to end.

I’ve spent the last 10 years operating at every level of the startup stack—engineering products from zero to first 10,000 users, building and launching full digital platforms with architecture, security, and scale, and designing go-to-market strategies that drive real traction.

Now I selectively focus on AI-driven transformation, combining every AI tool available today with hands-on development, marketing, and venture building to execute tech projects that solve real-world problems at scale—I’m also open to equity-based co-founder roles that own product-to-growth.
