I’m a Principal Product Engineer with 20+ years of experience building and scaling high-impact product and platform systems. I’ve worked across the full company lifecycle — founding startups (including one successful and one failed attempt), and serving as an early platform engineer at Zscaler during its hyper-growth years.

Today, I focus on building AI-powered, data-driven product experiences with strong foundations in banking, payments, and compliance-sensitive systems. I’ve led large-scale consumer financial platforms serving 20M+ daily active users, owned end-to-end payment and banking integrations, and driven experimentation and analytics to deliver measurable product outcomes.

I enjoy operating at the intersection of engineering, product, and business — shaping problems, shipping reliable systems, and helping teams move quickly without compromising quality or trust.
