About
I thrive at the intersection of fintech, AI, and automation — transforming complex lending and underwriting processes into seamless, scalable solutions. With a background in software engineering and product leadership, I bring a data-driven and technical approach to solving real-world financial challenges.
At Kiavi, I lead a team of PMs, own the roadmap for transforming our origination system into an AI-first underwriting platform, and champion AI adoption across the org.
Outside of work, I'm a mom to one little girl, married to my favorite travel partner, and someone who plans her vacation days a year out — you'll find me on a chairlift in winter, in a national park most other weekends, and writing about all of it here.
