Product + AI operator for Series A/B teams.
I take product visions from idea → pilot → production by turning messy business problems into shipped workflows people trust—then building the cadence, metrics, and cost discipline to scale.
Track Record
- •Built and led FanOSx, a venue operating system spanning real-time data, AI agents, digital twins, and monetization—commercialized in <24 months and deployed at a top-tier F1 racetrack.
- •Cut delivery timelines ~50% using AI-assisted development workflows and tighter operating cadence.
- •Helped secure $35M and built partnerships across leagues, vendors, and major brands.
- •Led a 50+ cross-border org (eng, product, design, CS) and embedded AI into workflows to reduce launch cycles.
- •Designed monetization across 5 revenue streams (ads, sponsorships, wallet, ticketing, promotions).
- •At Wellthi, launched a B2B2C white-label social banking platform; negotiated Mastercard licensing / partial IP acquisition; integrated Finicity for real-time transfers.
- •Shipped production integrations across major LLMs (OpenAI/Anthropic/Google) with usage caps, cost controls, and reliability guardrails.
What I Do
- AI product execution — evals, guardrails, reliability, cost control, adoption
- Platform + integrations — unify systems into a coherent operating layer
- Operating cadence — roadmap, rituals, metrics, accountability
- Monetization design — pricing, packaging, revenue surfaces
Selected Experience
FanOSx (CPTO) • Perplexity AI • Wellthi (CTO) • NextBit (Head of Technology & Product) • U.S. Government (TS/SCI) • 1839 Capital (Advisor)
Operating Principles
- •Ship weekly: small releases beat perfect plans.
- •Truth over harmony: debate hard, decide fast, document the decision.
- •AI with discipline: evals, fallbacks, and cost budgets from day one.
- •Ownership culture: clear DRI, clear metrics, no bystanders.
- •Non-zero-sum: align incentives, but keep expectations explicit.
I'm drawn to founders building a new default - not just features. My value is simple: I turn vision into shipped systems, adoption, and teams that compound.
If you're building an AI-enabled product and need a product leader who ships, let's talk.
(CPO / Head of Product / VP Product / GM — Series A/B preferred.)
