I like building things

I am someone who is deeply curious about how things work and why people use them the way they do. I enjoy sitting with ambiguity, asking thoughtful questions, and slowly shaping clarity through structure and intent. I am the overlap of people, creativity and science, where curiosity meets structure and ideas are turned into decisions

I am comfortable starting with ambiguity and turning it into clear roadmaps, metrics, and outcomes. I work at the intersection of data, machine learning, and product design, building systems that transform raw information into real-time insight. If you’re interested in the tools and software I use, you can check out my uses page.

Outside of work, I’m drawn to things that slow me down and sharpen my perspective. I spend time with photography, long rides, boxing, 3D art and my gym. I enjoy conversations around ideas, physics, philosophy, psychology, and tech. If something here resonates with you, you know what to do 😉
