My perspective is shaped by 7 years at a high-growth startup, where I wore many hats to help scale a local operation into a national market leader.


Off the clock, you'll find me behind a camera lens, experimenting with new recipes, or volunteering in the community. I believe that staying curious about the world is the best way to fuel creative problem-solving.
