Meet Your Firestarter

👋

Firestarters don’t just generate ideas, they ignite 🔥 forward motion. They ask the right questions, connect patterns, and help teams move from ambiguity to clear direction. That’s the role I tend to play in my work.

I’ve spent 15+ years leading digital products and teams, from launching and scaling mobile apps to redesigning complex systems and aligning organizations around what to build next.

Most often, I step into situations where something isn’t clicking—when there are a lot of ideas, but no shared path forward, or when teams are struggling to translate strategy into execution.

My strength is working across product, design, and strategy—connecting them to define direction, make decisions, and align teams around what gets built.
