I'm Chief of Staff at Fieldcrest Ventures, working across operations, product, design, and customer discovery for early-stage portfolio companies. I led an operational turnaround at Bidify where I rebuilt the product and AI system (reducing proposal time from 15 hours to 2 hours), validated early-stage concepts at Mark II Ventures, and built an embedded voice agent for all Lexus and Toyota cars (2021-2025) at Toyota Connected (20M+ requests per month).

That hands-on experience across the full stack of company building is what I'm drawn to. I thrive in the earliest stages of building AI software—working with agentic workflows and the latest technology to systematically validate and build products. I do my best work with small, cross-functional technical teams where I have real agency across strategy, design, engineering, and GTM.

Fieldcrest winds down at year-end, and I'm looking for my next role where I can apply this experience at an early-stage company building AI products.
