— 01 / About

A little background.

I'm an MBA candidate at MIT Sloan, where I'm a Dean's Fellow and pursuing a certificate in Product Management. I studied Computer Science at Vanderbilt with a minor in Engineering Management, which first got me interested in how technical and business decisions come together.

During my MBA, I joined Microsoft as a Product Manager Intern on Viva Glint, Microsoft's employee-listening product. I identified customer needs, defined product strategy and requirements, aligned cross-functional teams, and moved customer-facing survey experiences and internal AI productivity tools from discovery toward delivery.

Before business school, I spent four years at Accenture as a management consultant, then joined Glassdoor. There, I worked across go-to-market strategy, strategic and business operations, and later transitioned into product management on the Employer Branding team.

Those experiences shaped how I build: start with customer evidence, use data to clarify the opportunity, and align teams around a practical path to delivery. I'm especially drawn to AI and B2B products where thoughtful workflows can make complex work meaningfully easier.
