About Me
I'm a detail-oriented technology executive with extensive leadership experience expediting cloud transformation, AI-driven process improvement, and scalable software architecture for global enterprises. With proven expertise in driving cross-functional leadership, operational efficiency, and platform modernization across insurance technology, financial technology (fintech), and investment management, I leverage strong operations management skills and strategic approach to lead execution of high-impact technical innovation and business growth initiatives.
Currently, as Founding Engineer at Tabflows, I'm building the company's core product and technical foundation — AI-native workflows that help knowledge workers orchestrate complex tasks across the tools they already use. I translate product ideas into scalable cloud-native architectures, drive hands-on implementation, and help shape the engineering culture as the team grows.
My technical expertise spans cloud computing, data visualization, IT strategy execution, agile methodologies, UX/UI design, and big data artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) integration. I excel in project planning, software development life cycle (SDLC), resource management, frontend development, backend development, API design, full-stack development, program management, business strategy implementation, and cost optimization.
