Nice to meet you!

I'm a technical product manager in Vancouver, currently at Amazon, with a background in cloud platforms, APIs, pricing, customer discovery, and large-scale distributed systems. You can learn more about my professional background on LinkedIn.

At AWS, I led core Amazon EventBridge services, including owning the API surface, pricing, go-to-market, and scaling strategy for EventBridge Pipes, which reached 8,000+ customers and 7 billion weekly requests in its first year. More recently, I've been working on Amazon Bazaar, a cross-border shopping app for customers across Latin America, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific. Before Amazon, I led education technology products at Pearson and Top Hat, including assessment platforms and enterprise integrations.

I like public speaking, hands-on demos, and making complex technical products easier to understand. I created and presented a hands-on Amazon EventBridge Pipes workshop at re:Invent three years in a row.

I still enjoy getting my hands dirty with code. My GitHub has a mix of practical projects and experiments, including this site, investment portfolio tooling, and an MCP bridge that connects clients like Claude Code, Codex, and Cline to Google's Gmail, Calendar, and Drive. I also built an AI-assisted application system that turns hundreds of housing co-op applications into a committee-ready shortlist using deterministic screening and human-controlled ranking.

Outside work, I snowboard, sail, explore new places, and live in a housing co-op where I built our community website. Lately I've also been "creating" AI music, though it skews pretty heavily into songs about Pipes and other AWS stuff. Feel free to give it a listen!

I'm always happy to connect about product leadership, platform work, speaking opportunities, co-op living, or getting a website off the ground.
