About Me

I’m drawn to complex problems that need to be understood before they can be responded to and am energized by the discovery process: exploring different angles, untangling complexity, and synthesizing.

I love running experiments in business, in the lab, and in my personal life to iterate and tease out reality’s layers.

For the past three years, I went deep as the Co-Founder & CTO of Baleena, a venture-backed startup working to reduce microplastic pollution from textiles. (Yes, the stakeholder map was insane.)

NOW that rabbit hole led me to get really interested in clothing durability/quality and other opportunities in the fashion industry: rental, repair, and resale, returns, and data management (the supply chain! cross-department collaboration! product lifecycle management systems!).

Feel free to explore:

Thanks for stopping by!
