Joined as an IC, lead a few technical teams on the product side & internal engineering side as we scaled the company. Took on a GM role running a book of our largest OTA account, responsible for their P&L, customer relations, and product delivery.
In 2024, stepped in to lead the engineering side of the business after a large leadership shakeup (which I will write about someday). We work as a small team & have been profitable for the last few years.
