Customer Delight
Understanding customer desires
Clarity of strategic and customer vision
Alignment of purpose
I am an experienced Product, AI and Data science professional in Toronto, Canada trained in
Computer Science, Robotics and Business.
With ~3 years of direct (and 5 years adjacent) product experience and 7+ years of machine learning
and data science experience, my days are multidisciplinary;
a delightful mix between strategizing product features and releases, seeking out the coolest
new techniques and implementing new algorithms to delight and wow customers. I
constantly draw from my strong technical and business background with an MBA from
the University of Toronto and masters in Robotics from the University of
Pennsylvania and find great joy in blending both areas of expertise.
I get really excited about crafting product vision, nurturing teams and building innovative ai/data products with open collaboration and ridiculous enthusiasm.
