Selected Work
Personal Project · Founder
Built the only platform on the internet to track, value, and visualize Thai Pokémon card collections. Used AI-assisted development to condense a 500-hour project into 125 hours and launched in under one month.
Contract · Full-Stack Development
Architected a full-stack e-invoicing compliance platform handling multi-jurisdiction validation, ERP integration, and real-time PEPPOL gateway submission. Built the entire pipeline from invoice ingestion to regulatory compliance.
Seed-Stage Startup · Lead Product Manager
Led experimentation at a seed-stage fitness app. Designed and launched features including nutrition tracking, Stripe payments, simplified paywalls, and premium tiers — all informed by 50 user interviews and data-driven prioritization.
Public Company · Senior Data Analyst
Designed a hotel commission reduction program using predictive modeling in Python. Built room night target estimates that incentivized partners and drove measurable booking growth across participating hotels.
Background
I studied Applied Mathematics and Economics at UC Berkeley, graduating summa cum laude. Since then, I've spent 8+ years in analytical and product roles at companies ranging from seed-stage startups to publicly traded companies.
I've worked at NerdWallet, Agoda, Scopely, AppsFlyer, Speechify, and Flex AI — shipping features, running experiments, building data pipelines, and driving measurable outcomes. I've held roles as Lead Product Manager, Senior Data Analyst, Senior Product Analyst, and Product Analytics Consultant.
Outside of full-time work, I've mentored 1,400+ students in data analytics through Springboard, maintaining a lifetime rating of 4.96/5. I'm a published researcher in Radiation Research and have passed three actuarial exams.
I build things that work. I measure what matters. I keep it simple.
SmoothStart AI
Most businesses know AI can help them, but don't know where to start. I find the opportunities, set everything up, and make sure your team can use it on day one.
I look at your workflows and identify where AI can save real time and money. No guesswork — just the use cases that make sense for your business.
Custom AI workflows tailored to your operations. I configure the tools, connect the systems, and build the processes so everything works together.
Your team learns to use everything independently. I provide clear documentation and hands-on training so you don't need me long-term.
This isn't a pitch for expensive enterprise software or a six-month consulting engagement. It's a focused, practical engagement where I find the wins, set things up, and get out of your way. You keep the results.
