I build digital products end-to-end – from first insight to production.

I work at the intersection of Product, Technology, Business Model Development, and Innovation. I design systems where engineering and business reinforce each other, creating products that deliver real impact.

Vision & Mission

Why I build what I build – and where I want it to go

Vision

To build a future where every digital product truly matters. I envision a world where lean validation and engineering craftsmanship are inseparable—creating products that solve real problems and deliver lasting value.

Mission

Traction follows action. I combine lean methodology with pragmatic engineering to build scalable MVPs and find product-market fit faster. I focus on maximizing impact and accelerating learning loops to ensure we build the right product—one that drives sustainable growth.

Values & Principles

The mindset I bring to every project: speed, focus, and ownership.

Outcome over Output

I measure success by business impact, not features shipped. Every line of code must serve a validated user need or business goal.

Problem Obsession

Fall in love with the problem, not the solution. I dig deep to understand the root cause before engineering the fix.

Validated Learning

Opinions are hypotheses; data is fact. I build to learn, treating every release as an experiment to reduce risk.

Radical Ownership

I act as a co-founder, not just a developer or product manager. I think beyond the ticket, challenging assumptions and owning the product's success.

Speed is Strategy

Speed is survival. I prioritize rapid iteration and feedback loops over theoretical perfection. By moving fast, we learn what works and outpace the competition.

Pragmatic Quality

I prioritize pragmatism over complexity. Whether in code or strategy, I focus on simple, effective solutions that drive sustainable progress.

The Four Pillars

My work rests on four pillars: Product, Technology, Business Model Design, and Innovation. I believe that truly impactful digital products only emerge when these areas interlock.

Product

Building products that users love – and that make sense for the business.

Product Strategy

Defining a clear path to win. Bridging user needs with business goals to create defensible value.

Lean Validation

De-risking ideas early. Using fake doors, prototypes, and interviews to validate demand before building.

Continuous Discovery

Staying close to the customer. Regular touchpoints to uncover 'Jobs to be Done' and hidden pains.

Product-Led Growth

Building growth into the product. Designing viral loops, referral systems, and frictionless onboarding.

Data-Driven Iteration

Measuring what matters. Using analytics to inform decisions, not just validate guesses.

Roadmap & Prioritization

Ruthless focus. Prioritizing features that drive specific outcomes over 'nice-to-haves'.

Technology

Engineering as an enabler for product. I ship fast, pragmatically, and robustly.

Rapid MVP Development

Speed as a feature. Shipping functional, testable products in weeks to start the learning loop.

Full-Stack Implementation

End-to-end execution. Building complete web solutions using modern stacks (Next.js, TypeScript, Node).

Pragmatic Architecture

Just enough structure. Systems that are robust enough to scale but simple enough to change fast.

Tech Stack Strategy

Choosing the right tools. Selecting ecosystems that maximize developer productivity, simplify staffing, and ensure long-term maintainability.

Scalable Foundations

Built for growth. Implementing solid auth, database, and security practices from Day 1.

AI Integration

Intelligent Experiences. Embedding AI to create adaptive, magical product interactions that solve problems in fundamentally new ways.

Business Model Development

Designing product, pricing, and go-to-market to reinforce each other.

Business Model Generation

Designing the engine. Mapping value creation, delivery, and capture using Lean Canvas principles.

Unit Economics

The math of growth. Calculating and optimizing CAC, LTV, and margins to ensure scalability.

Monetization Strategy

Revenue logic. Defining the right pricing models—SaaS, transactional, or hybrid—for the target market.

Go-to-Market Strategy

Launch planning. Identifying channels and tactics to get the product into the first users' hands.

Pricing & Packaging

Value capture. Structuring tiers and offers to maximize conversion and revenue potential.

Market Sizing & Segmentation

Focusing the attack. Identifying the beachhead market and calculating the TAM/SAM/SOM.

Innovation

Testing bold ideas leanly – and building the right ones into real ventures.

Zero-to-One Venture Building

From action to traction. Orchestrating the chaotic journey from idea to a viable business.

Lean Startup Methodology

Build-Measure-Learn. A scientific approach to creating businesses and reducing waste.

Opportunity Assessment

Vetting ideas. Systematically evaluating market timing, feasibility, and potential.

Hypothesis-Driven Experimentation

Testing assumptions. Designing experiments to validate critical risks (Desirability, Viability, Feasibility).

Investor Narrative

Capital Strategy. Translating vision and metrics into a compelling investment thesis that resonates with investors and secures funding.

Agile Innovation

Moving fast. Applying agile principles not just to code, but to business development and strategy.
