“Engineering leader who drove Lightroom Mobile’s roadmap at Adobe by enforcing reuse of Photoshop imaging tech to deliver RAW, non-destructive mobile editing with full Creative Cloud compatibility. In startup environments, has repeatedly scaled and professionalized engineering orgs (career ladders, evaluation systems, delivery process) and led high-stakes cloud/platform transformations—migrating off Heroku and consolidating fragmented AWS/GCP usage into a single GCP platform—improving reliability, deploy speed, and cutting cloud costs by 20%+.”

“Founder/director of the music and event production company Tuned In, personally driving outbound BD to book underground LA talent and produce 25 events, including a major Lunar New Year collaboration with Alice Longyu Gao. Also ran multi-channel voter/community outreach for the Frankie Carrillo campaign (door knocking, 1,000+ SMS) and built automation tools (Apple widget; AI image-to-CSV workflow at Live Nation) to improve operational efficiency.”

“Account Executive Intern with hands-on end-to-end involvement in HRIS SaaS sales at Paycom (owned most of the AE motion except final close), focused on sourcing greenfield pipeline and building business cases/POVs/POCs. Also helped build an outbound playbook and sales tech stack at Harcourts, including dialer optimization and CRM integration, and has earlier experience selling web/app/marketing services to small businesses.”

“Full-stack engineer with strong production ownership across React/TypeScript, Node.js, and AWS (EC2/ECS/RDS/CloudWatch), including CI/CD, observability, and incident response. Delivered a secure RBAC workflow module end-to-end and achieved measurable gains (~30–40% latency reduction, ~50% error reduction) that lowered infra/ops costs. Comfortable in high-ambiguity startup environments—shipped a payment module within 2 days of joining with no documentation.”

“Customer lifecycle/CRM practitioner with experience at DripJobs and Solver, focused on onboarding, retention, and customer education. Drove a 51% churn reduction in 90 days by overhauling onboarding with pre-training automation (Close CRM) and CS playbooks, and boosted training sign-ups 37% by shifting existing-customer marketing into CS using Totango and industry-tailored messaging.”
