I graduated with a Computer Engineering degree from the University of Arizona and later earned my Master's in Computer Engineering with a focus on Computer Vision from Rochester Institute of Technology. My thesis on "Face Recognition in Low-Resolution Video Sequences using Super Resolution" sparked my interest in solving complex technical problems that impact users.

After my academic journey, I transitioned into product development at Xerox, where I progressed from Software Engineer to Product Owner, helping develop key features for production printers. This experience taught me the importance of user-centered design and cross-functional collaboration.

My career evolved as I moved into Product Management roles at Ellucian and Cambia Health Solutions, where I led mobile app development and platform modernization. At Journi, I had the opportunity to launch and scale a healthcare startup from the ground up, resulting in a 3x increase in health plan customers and 42,000+ active users.

Currently, I serve as Director of Product Management at Extensis (Monotype), where I lead our AI-powered analytics platform and manage a team of product managers and designers. My focus is on creating innovative solutions that drive measurable business outcomes while delivering exceptional user experiences.

Beyond my professional work, I'm passionate about mentoring aspiring product leaders and sharing insights on product strategy and innovation.

When I'm not immersed in product work, you'll find me spending time in lawn care (big lawn care enthusiast) or helping my son with his Karate training.
