Find a line.
Make it work.

I like getting close to a problem, figuring out what matters, and building from there.

01 / THE MOUNTAIN
A small world, always in motion
Scroll into the mountain
Peter Blake

Curiosity is the start.
Following through is the work.

I work across strategy, operations, and building useful tools. My background spans growth equity and hands-on operating work at Evercoast.

I’m drawn to problems where understanding the business and making something useful happen together.

What shipped deserves
some follow-through.

Matches public Ramp feature requests to product releases, shows the supporting evidence, flags what’s still missing, and drafts a reply for review.

02 / Evercoast · Operations

Bring the operation in-house.

Owned participant operations for a 138-person data collection program, reducing direct participant costs by approximately 45% versus the vendor.

Behind the result

Led recruitment, qualification, scheduling, confirmations, and rewards. With two people required at one capture rig, I prioritized partially filled sessions and introduced a standby bench. Attendance was maintained. Incentives stayed constant; the cost comparison excludes my time.

03 / Mamba Growth · Systems

Build the foundation for sourcing.

As the firm’s first hire, led the CRM migration from DealCloud to Attio and built sourcing workflows and logging automations around it.

Behind the system

Worked across sourcing, financial analysis, diligence, and internal operations. The migration created a foundation for organizing companies and contacts, tracking outreach, and automating routine logging.

A little background

I like getting close enough to a business to understand how it actually works.

I started in growth equity and moved into operating work at Evercoast, where I’ve run programs, built internal tools, and explored applications for spatial AI.

Outside of work: skiing, aerospace, and how machines understand the physical world.
