👔 On the professional side...

I love building products in financial services and tackling complex business problems. I enjoy bringing together business strategy, design, and technology to drive unique solutions. I also care deeply about helping people construct a better financial life.

I currently work at TheGuarantors, as the Head of New Products. TheGuarantors is a Series C FinTech/InsurTech based in New York, building financial solutions for Renters and Property Managers.

Previously, I worked at MetLife’s Digital Office and Capital One’s Innovation Lab, helping to incubate and launch new products. I started my career in management consulting at AT Kearney, primarily working with payments and banking clients. I’m an alumnus of Ivey Business School.

Investing and advisory work

I invest and advise in sectors that I am familiar with, and/or where I can help. That usually ends up being FinTech (payments, personal finance), InsurTech (retail, employer benefits), and specialty products.
