I am a Full Stack Product Leader specializing in Scaling Financial Products.

I bring 15+ years of financial experience, including 6 years managing $52B+ savings portfolios for Canada's largest banks (Scotiabank & TD), and now I am actively building in the Bitcoin space.

My core value is Agility. I adapt seamlessly between Strategy and Shipping, shifting instantly from defining the high-level vision to driving rapid execution.

I am fluent in:

* Financial Strategy: Deep expertise in P&L management, financial modeling, and risk assessment to ensure every feature drives revenue.

* Scientific Product Discovery: I reject "guessing." I use rigorous user research and rapid prototyping to validate what to build before engineering writes a single line of code, ensuring capital is never wasted on features nobody wants.

* Growth & Retention: Optimizing Unit Economics, reducing churn, and maximizing Lifetime Value (LTV) through data-driven decisions.

* Execution Excellence: PMP-certified leadership in Agile/Scrum and Process Re-engineering to turn messy requirements into predictable roadmaps.

* AI-Native Operations: Leveraging LLMs and AI tools to accelerate workflows and modernize product operations.

* User Adoption: Applying Behavioral Science and Change Management (ADKAR) to solve the hardest problem in Fintech: getting users to trust and use new products.

My superpower is combining Institutional Scale with Startup Speed. I know how to navigate complex regulations like a banker, but I ship and iterate with the agility of a founder.
