  • Consumer-scale products

    Work on products used by large audiences (including Bolt merchants, Wombo, Kijiji (eBay Classifieds), Equinox, and WestJet). Scale is the product’s, not a personal guarantee.

  • 50+ products and features

    Shipped across agency and in-house work: checkout, commerce, consumer AI, and marketplaces.

  • Commerce programs

    Checkout and commerce work on brand programs that process large volume. That volume is the program’s, not personal revenue claimed here.

  • Tech lead ownership

    Engineering, product direction, and results in one seat when that is the engagement.

Personal AI tooling usage for the stated period. Same numbers as the LinkedIn Anthropic IPO note. Usage is activity, not proof that systems are trustworthy.

Put agents on defined tasks, with a person accountable.

I come from regulated fintech. I help teams add AI to delivery loops with previews, tests, and ownership, not one-off chat prompts.
