I’m a designer who started as an engineer. I began in research on program analysis and formal verification, then built software at Goldman Sachs and Target. In 2018 I went through YC with my own adtech startup and learned firsthand what it takes to ship, sell, and survive.
Today I design products for YC and a16z-backed startups, mostly in AI: agent workflows, review and approval flows, and interfaces that help users trust what the AI is doing.
I work like a founder, not a vendor. I move fast, talk to users, prototype early, and hand engineers designs they can actually build. If you’re tackling a hard product problem, I’d love to hear about it.
Also, Im a paragliding pilot!
