I started in journalism and public media in Washington, DC — as a television news writer/producer and in digital product roles for PBS and NPR. I saw a gap firsthand: strong reporting, but weak digital tools for audience engagement. So I learned how to build the tools.
That path took me through early streaming work, then ecommerce and direct-to-consumer optimization in Austin, and eventually into senior product and operating leadership across enterprise SaaS and AI/ML. Focus now: enterprise SaaS, AI/ML automation, product-led growth, and portfolio recovery with measurable delivery.
In parallel, I've been involved in Pflugerville civic life for over a decade — HOA treasurer, Planning & Zoning Chair, Capital Improvements Advisory Chair, and now City Council.
