Executive product leader specializing in EdTech and SaaS

Cambridge, MA20y exp

“Product leader with deep edtech and AI experience who helped scale instaGrok from a disappointing launch to 330,000 monthly users in one school year without paid acquisition. Has operated as the sole product decision-maker in a tiny startup, consulted through founder-strategy conflict, and brings a human-centered view of AI as a tool for exploration and learning rather than replacement.”

“Product leader with experience rebuilding large-scale search and AI-enabled workflow products at Amadeus and SignalWire. Stands out for combining AI strategy, UX simplification, and organizational alignment—driving measurable outcomes like 45% adoption growth, 42% revenue increase, and mentoring teams to stronger cross-functional execution.”

“Analytics-to-product leader who has repeatedly turned messy, high-stakes data problems into scalable business outcomes—from modernizing American Express merchant risk scoring to helping build Meesho's influencer commerce channel into a meaningful revenue driver. Currently prototyping an enterprise GenAI platform for Sikich, where they shaped the architecture, privacy controls, and deployment standards for AI on sensitive client documents.”
