About
I’m a Technical Product Owner and Senior Business Analyst with 12+ years of experience. I’ve spent my career embedded in engineering teams at large enterprises, and I now consult on data and AI programs. I also design and ship my own products, including Mote, an Android TV remote app live on Google Play. I work remotely from Jeffersonville, Indiana.

02 / strengths
Strengths
Embedded with engineering
Working shoulder to shoulder with developers and architects, not throwing requirements over the wall.
Technical depth
Comfortable in the data and the plumbing — SQL, APIs, and data flows — so requirements hold up against how systems really work.
Stakeholder fluency
Facilitating discovery and alignment across business, operations, security, and executive audiences.
Security & compliance minded
Building security and regulatory requirements into the plan from the start, not bolting them on at the end.
Practical AI delivery
Getting GenAI and conversational AI work from idea to something the business can actually run.
