About Me
Engineering Director, Sci-Fi Nerd, Sports Enthusiast, Traveler, Food Lover
Who I Am
I'm an Engineering Director at American Express, where I lead teams building innovative digital products and services. With over 11 years of experience spanning web development, engineering leadership, and customer success, I've focused on creating scalable solutions that deliver real business value.
But work is just one part of who I am. I'm a huge sci-fi nerd—especially the Dune series—and I love diving deep into the worlds that authors like Frank Herbert create. I'm also a massive sports fan: I play pickup basketball regularly, watch almost every sport there is, and believe there's nothing quite like the flow state you hit during a good game.
When I'm not coding or watching sports, I'm usually traveling and exploring new places. I'm passionate about food and drink—finding that perfect ramen spot in Tokyo or discovering a hidden gem restaurant in a new city is what makes travel exciting for me.
