He blends hands-on engineering roots with executive product strategy from roles including VP of Product Development at Hitachi Solutions, where he led Azure data and analytics products and drove over $40M in first-year revenue. A serial founder and operator, he launched and scaled startups across e-commerce, bitcoin services, DDoS mitigation, and MMO infrastructure, demonstrating a knack for turning technical innovation into viable businesses.
