What drives me?
“Building products clients love – intuitive, simple, and built to solve real problems.”
In three words
Determined, practical, curious
What’s one misconception about AI you’d love to change?
That using AI means cutting corners. Used well, it frees you up to focus on the harder, more interesting problems instead of the repetitive stuff.
What excites you most about the future?
The pace of change. Wyser is in a unique position to solve problems for clients that would have been unsolvable just a few years ago.

Outside of Wyser: I’m usually outdoors – hiking, walking, or just getting some fresh air
