About me

I'm a content marketer and journalist with 15+ years of experience in banking and technology. I was a product manager and tech executive before pivoting to a new career in 2021.

As a freelance writer, I understand both the technical side and the business side, because I've worked in both. My clients are B2B tech companies and industry publications.

I also create resources for fellow solopreneurs, like guides, tutorials, and workshops. I focus on the back-end operations stuff that no one else talks about: tools, automation, and AI.

When I'm not working, I'm probably tinkering with my own productivity systems or hanging out with my three kids.
