About Me
I am a STEM MBA candidate at the University of Washington Foster School of Business and a product-minded builder with a software engineering foundation. My work centers on AI products, customer discovery, product strategy, and clear go-to-market thinking, with a bias toward understanding real user behavior before shaping solutions.
I like product work that starts with a messy human problem, moves through disciplined discovery, and ends in a clear strategy, prototype, or roadmap that teams can actually use.
Designing practical GenAI workflows, prototypes, and product concepts from real user needs.
Turning interviews, reviews, and market signals into sharp problem framing and product direction.
Connecting positioning, segmentation, adoption barriers, and metrics into clear launch thinking.
Bringing engineering judgment to product tradeoffs, roadmap clarity, and cross-functional execution.
