I am a technologist and meritocrat with a true love for building products that add value to people’s lives, particularly in the areas of mental and physical health. I have a tendency to bite off more than I can chew, but I always figure out how to manage—and I attribute much of my success to this trait.
Currently moving between the Bay Area (for Stanford), NYC (for Flamme) and BCN (for love).
