Where I've worked
i1n Feb 2026 - Present
As CEO & Founder of i1n, I'm solely leading the end-to-end initiative to bring this product to market, managing everything from strategic vision and product-led growth to technical execution.
Architecting a high-performance localization infrastructure that decouples translation management from deployment cycles, enabling engineering teams to scale global products faster. Driving market positioning and user acquisition by identifying critical friction points in internationalization (i18n) for modern development stacks.
Defining the core value proposition of an 'infrastructure-first' approach to localization, moving beyond traditional translation tools into developer-centric automation.
Belo - Technical Product Manager Feb 2026 - Present
Bridging the gap between business goals and engineering execution, defining clear roadmaps and technical priorities for Belo's cross-border payment infrastructure.
