Entrepreneur & Product-Engineering Leader with a unique combination of
hands-on development, enterprise sales, and product strategy. Serial Founder with successful
exits (Fitness-Dessert). Currently at Adobe by day as Principal Solution Consultant, and
developer by passion β founding Synergy Engineering in my free time to scratch
my own itch for building. 12+ years enterprise experience bridging technical architecture and business value at Adobe.
In my nights and weekends, I build agentic AI solutions, microservices, and APIs myself using
AWS and Google Firebase β because I love turning ideas into working code. This combination of
Builder + Seller + Strategist enables me to create products that are both technically excellent
and commercially successful. Adobe in my head, developer in my heart.
