Growing the next
generation of leaders.

I work with engineers at two inflection points: those growing into leadership, and those preparing for the interviews that get them there. I've been on both sides of that table and know exactly what separates good from great.

System design rounds, EM and director-level loops. I know exactly what separates a good answer from a hired one.
🀝
Offer Negotiation
Most engineers accept the first number. I know exactly when to push, what to counter with, and how to walk away with significantly more.

Fractional
Engineering Leadership

I've shipped blockchain infrastructure processing billions in daily volume, built systems serving tens of millions of users, and grown engineering organizations from the ground up: hiring, structuring, and developing the teams that keep it all running. I know what breaks at every stage of scale. I build so it doesn't.

How I work
Deep work

Through regular 1:1s, we work through the leadership challenges that compound fastest: growing and retaining your team, navigating a difficult hire, restructuring an org, and making the culture decisions that define how you scale. Solutions grounded for your org and your context.

In the moment

Some moments need a call, not a calendar slot. Whether you are preparing to present to your board or exec team, navigating a difficult leadership conversation, or working through a decision that cannot wait, I am reachable when it counts.

People and connections

I bring 15 years of experience across multiple companies and have had the privilege of working alongside some of the most talented engineers and executives in the industry. Whether you need an experienced executive, a key hire, or a warm intro to the right operator, I get you to the right person.
