Documenting my journey navigating the product management world as I develop the skills, mindset, and knowledge required to build meaningful products.
I'm an Honors Computer Science student at SUNY Albany with a robust background in data science, spanning full-stack development, open source contribution, and cross-functional team leadership. I have experience leading organizations, and driving initiatives that sit at the intersection of technology and social impact.
What drives me is the space between technology and people; understanding what users actually need, defining what gets built and why, and making sure the right solution ships.
I care about the why behind what gets built, not just the how.
I'm drawn to product management because it's where technical fluency meets strategic thinking and human empathy, and it's where I've naturally operated across every experience I've had.
Check out my resume ↗UAlbany's shuttle system runs on Alpine Systems' static schedule interface, which gives students no live information- no shuttle location, no real ETA, no way to tell if a shuttle already left or is running late. It's a real problem, and I'm building the solution: a live shuttle tracker and trip planner built for how students actually use the shuttle, eliminating the guesswork entirely, making campus navigation easier and stress free.
I analyze real products the way a Product Manager would - identifying user problems, diagnosing what's working and what isn't, and proposing solutions with clear success metrics. Click on any card to view.
Proper Product Requirements Documents for features I'd ship for products I love . Actual specs with user stories, non-goals, and rollout phases. The same thinking and output I'd bring to any PM role.
More unsolicited PRDs coming soon - Stay tuned!
Laying the groundwork for a chapter that bridges the gap between student experience and real world impact.
I'm building the case for a Blueprint chapter at SUNY Albany; a student-run organization that would build free, production-grade software for nonprofits. Each project team would consist of a Product Manager, Software Engineers, and a UX Designer, giving students structured role-specific experience on real client work.
Right now I'm in early conversations, including with a potential faculty advisor, and scoping out what it would take to get a chapter off the ground at UAlbany. This is the kind of ground-up organization building I want to take on as I sharpen the judgment, structure, and leadership skills that feed into product management thinking.
I'm actively building toward Associate Product Manager roles and I'm always open to conversations with Product Managers, recruiters, anyone working on any interesting products or just looking to chat :)
