About Me

Building longevity tech

Passionate about building beautiful minimalistic products, creating amazing experiences, and learning new things with awesome people

Professional Summary

Currently Product at SAP. I like to ship, even if it's on a Friday.

My path: aerospace engineering → startups → enterprise software. Right now I'm infusing AI into SAP's Revenue Growth Management suite, after scaling Intelligent Trade Claims Management from concept to millions of claims annually.

Outside SAP, I'm building Beginnity, a core member of Biolearn regarding aging clock research, and formerly contributed to the Talisman Web3 wallet. I also weightlift, travel, maintain a 1000+ day Duolingo streak, and I'm a regular at American Comedy Club.
