Product executive at Mainstay leading AI student support and building analytics for student retention.

At Mainstay, I lead product and engineering as one function for an AI-powered higher-education platform. I’m building a shared roadmap for conversational AI and behavioral science, alongside analytics that help institutions understand student sentiment and cohorts.

At FEVO, I led product strategy and delivery for a B2B2C SaaS platform that grew from concept to more than $30 million in annual revenue. I also expanded live-event commerce through Costco’s membership base, generating more than $4 million in sales within six months.

My work has also included building RetailMeNot’s Installables department, where a Safari iOS extension generated $4 million in new annual recurring revenue, and leading Sedera’s AI utilization management module, which saved $3 million in processing costs over 12 months. Earlier, I commercialized Ultra Electronics’ TacViewC2 into a flagship product generating more than $20 million in annual recurring revenue.
