I build small, useful software
for the people around me.

Product manager with engineering roots — I design, build, and ship human-centered things, end to end. On the side I write about technology, society, and the great outdoors.

About

I'm a product manager in San Francisco with engineering roots — I wrote backend code professionally before moving into product, partnerships, and go-to-market. These days I've closed the loop again: I design, build, and ship my own products, end to end.

What I care about hasn't changed: technology should serve people. The projects on this page exist because someone I know needed them — a game night, a family business, a World Cup pool. Small software, real impact.

Off-screen you'll find me on a trail, at the gym, or cooking for people I love.

Technology should serve people — small software, real impact.
