About Me
I focus on the why behind technical decisions, bridging engineering and product to build systems that work for real users. I lead frontend architecture, shape cross-team standards, and care deeply about the details that make software feel right.
Background
Currently at Powder, I'm building LLM-powered workflows and real-time data integrations for a fintech platform. Previously, I led frontend architecture at Real Capital Innovation, which was later acquired by Addepar and evolved into Navigator, a portfolio analysis tool supporting advisor workflows at scale.
Before fintech, I designed touchscreen interfaces for Siemens cardiology ultrasound systems. Earlier, I spent 8 years at Samsung leading SmartTV platform development and contributing to Galaxy cloud services, where I authored multiple patents related to interface design and system behavior.
My background in both Computer Science and Human Factors shapes how I approach technical decisions, always considering how real users will interact with the systems I build.
