How I Solve Problems
🧠 Mindset & Values
Empathy, curiosity, ethics, and a commitment to building tech that genuinely improves lives—not just scales fast.
🤝 Collaboration Style
Observe deeply, build trust one-on-one, foster inclusion, and drive co-created solutions across teams.
🎯 Leadership Philosophy
Lead by listening first. Recognize and amplify the unseen strengths within teams to unlock higher impact and growth.
🔎 Problem Solving Approach
Surface the real root cause. Map patterns. Solve with clarity, creativity, and transferable frameworks whenever possible.
🧠 Systems Thinking + Empathy
Both a technical and human endeavor, keep the big picture in mind while navigating the smallest details. Think about how each decision impacts users. Think technical to understand how systems are built, have empathy to never forget who you're building them for.
🔍 Curiosity-Driven Collaboration
Really think about the questions, quality questions lead to quality answers. Observe first, listen deeply, and invite others into the problem-solving process. Build trust through understanding and intentional follow-up.
⚖️ Solution-Oriented Conflict
There's rarely one right way to solve a problem. What matters is clarity around the outcome to navigate cross-functional decisions with curiosity, not defensiveness, and advocate for outcomes over egos.
🧩 Adaptable Leadership
Whether mentoring an intern or facilitating executive strategy sessions, adapt the approach to meet the moment. Strive to create psychologically safe spaces where ideas can flourish—especially for quiet contributors.
✨ Building Culture through Care
Create a work environments where people feel seen, encouraged, and excited to contribute. Advocate for open dialogue, call out hidden strengths, and guide people toward unlocking their full potential. It's ok to laugh, experiment, and take breaks—because joy sustains creativity!
