Product & AI builder
About
I build and ship products, mostly AI these days: coding agents, MCP tooling, and applied ML for forecasting and real decisions. I also lead product for teams taking hard technical systems to market. Over the past decade I've built and scaled consumer apps as a product lead, an operator, and a hands-on engineer, much of it in crypto and DeFi, where I've run DeFiPrime since 2019 and still work at the frontier. The job rarely changes: take something complex, make it clear, and get it shipped.
