Engineer turned product person. Currently the founding PM at Hyperbound, a YC-backed AI sales training startup.
I am a person who always asks why. I build things, break things, and ask “what if?” a lot. An adage I've always resonated with: “Jack of all trades, master of none, but oftentimes better than master of one.”
