United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Vice President Product Manager and Senior Data Analyst who turns complex data into products that teams can actually use. I spearheaded a 0-to-1 launch of the DriftGPT GenAI Text-to-SQL platform, enabling self-service analytics for 10+ teams and improving operational efficiency by 10x.
I’ve led strategy and execution across high-stakes data initiatives, including a $2B+ data center valuation engine. By partnering with 7+ cross-geo teams, I drove an 85% drop in SLA issues and supported multi-million-dollar insurance risk mitigation.
I also build scalable operating systems for analytics: I unified 12+ siloed data streams into a governed Golden Source (22% improvement in data accuracy), defined global product vision and API contracts for inventory analytics, and modernized the data estate to deliver faster time to insights, $2.3M in annual cost savings, and higher CSAT.
