Beyond Code
I've been a musician since I was 4 years old. Started playing guitar at 11, and over the years I've learned to play drums, bass, keyboards, flute, and harmonica. Music has always been a core part of who I am.
Rock band: Used to play in a rock band, and we released 2 songs on Spotify. The experience of creating, recording, and releasing music taught me a lot about collaboration, iteration, and bringing creative ideas to life.
I've been a marathon runner for 9 years. Running has taught me discipline, patience, and the importance of consistent progress over time—lessons that translate directly to building products and leading teams.
6 marathons completed with a personal best of 2:50:22. The mental resilience and long-term thinking required for marathon training mirror the approach needed to build and scale products.
