What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build and scale AI-native products where I can own strategy through execution, move quickly from customer insight to shipped product, and solve meaningful problems with high-performing teams.

I'm building Waypoint, an AI-native travel platform, as its solo founder. I own the full journey—from product strategy, revenue model, design, and engineering to growth and distribution.

I built Waypoint's native iOS and Android apps, Python backend, Supabase infrastructure, Claude AI integration, and ChatGPT MCP connector. I've also developed its subscription strategy, programmatic SEO, sharing surfaces, and B2B white-label positioning through customer interviews and rapid iteration.

Before Waypoint, I led 70+ engineers across 12 squads at JPMorgan Chase, helping deliver the Chase UK mobile app and German market launch. I've also shipped consumer products at Twitter and Flipboard, where I owned iOS delivery end-to-end under tight resource constraints.
