I break things down so I can build them better.

I've spent 20+ years in insurance — not because it's glamorous, but because it's full of complex problems that most people walk past. I'm the person who stops, stares at the broken process, and thinks: "I bet I can automate that."

My career has been a winding path through product management, claims analysis, partner strategy, innovation labs, and marketing leadership. The through line? I like building things that work and proving it with numbers.

I'm currently VP of Insurance Products at vQuip, where we're building an ecosystem of risk management and insurance technologies. Before that, I spent nearly a decade at The General, where I got to do some of my most rewarding work — including creating an innovation lab that launched 10 lean startup pilots and leading the mobile strategy that put us ahead of every other auto carrier.

Outside of insurance, I'm a fan of root cause analysis applied to everything (yes, even dinner plans), a reader of "Humor, Seriously" (working on bringing more fun to serious work), and an increasingly dangerous user of Claude Code.

I have an MBA from Kennesaw State and a BBA in Risk Management from the University of Georgia. Go Dawgs.
