I build data and AI products that people rely on in high-stakes environments.
8 years shipping analytics and AI products across telecom, public health, and cloud. Carnegie Mellon. AWS-certified. I operate where being wrong is expensive.
I build data and AI products that people actually use, in environments where being wrong has real consequences.
My path started in Accra, Ghana, where I spent five years as a solutions architect in telecom, designing systems for fraud detection, KYC compliance, and millions of subscribers. That work taught me something that most data professionals never fully learn: reliability and consequence are design inputs, not afterthoughts. A provisioning error at scale isn't a bug; it's a regulatory incident.
I then earned my Master's at Carnegie Mellon (Highest Distinction, 2023), where I was awarded the ISM Most Outstanding Teaching Assistant, teaching Distributed Systems, Database Management, and Data Visualization while consulting with Estée Lauder, Yum Brands, and building a public workforce analytics tool with the Block Center for Technology & Society.
Today I lead the analytics and AI product work behind $170M+ in annual public-program decisions in Allegheny County. I lead work related to data analytics and the operationalization of two major predictive-risk models, including the self-service platforms program staff use day to day, and I govern it all under HIPAA and FERPA.
My work sits at the intersection of three things most teams keep siloed: deep technical build (ETL, data warehousing, cloud, ML), product ownership (scoping, prioritization, adoption), and regulated-domain judgment (the ability to operate responsibly with data that affects real lives).
I'm currently targeting AI / Technical Product Manager roles in organizations where this combination is uniquely valuable. (e.g. Tech, Fintech, Health, Public Sector)
Five capability groups, from product strategy to security governance.
Scoping, roadmapping, stakeholder alignment, and the unglamorous work of making data products actually get used.
Production AI operations, LLM application design, and responsible deployment in regulated environments.
End-to-end pipeline build, cloud infrastructure, and the foundations that make analytics products durable.
Self-service platform design, statistical analysis, and data storytelling for non-technical decision-makers.
HIPAA/FERPA compliance, RBAC design, and security analytics for orgs where data mistakes have real consequences.

A live predictive-risk model used in high-stakes child-welfare screening decisions required continuous monitoring, evaluation, and responsible iteration.
Outreach teams needed to identify and engage highest-priority families earlier and more effectively, using predictive signals, without overstepping ethical and privacy limits.
A small analytics team was consuming itself answering ad-hoc requests from 50+ partner organizations. Nothing was reusable. Nothing scaled.
Could an AI-assisted documentation tool meaningfully reduce frontline staff burden, without compromising data quality, workflow, or privacy? Leadership needed a real answer, not a vendor demo.
Critical operational reports depended on a costly third-party platform. The organization had no control over its own reporting logic or data.
A major telecom's SIM-provisioning process had unacceptably high error rates and mobile fraud, leaving it exposed to regulatory risk and weak identity verification.
A telecom relied on expensive licensed software for distribution management and supply-chain reconciliation. The vendor relationship was costly and the system didn't fit operational needs.
Workforce pipeline data across industries and regions was fragmented and inaccessible to researchers, policymakers, and the public.
Helped implement a secure biometric SIM registration process that strengthened identity verification, reduced AML and mobile-fraud exposure by 60%, and improved CRM data quality by linking subscriber records to verified personally identifiable information.

The things that make me human: faith, family, service, and the life I'm building outside of a job title.
Married to Emily, my best friend and life partner. I'm genuinely grateful for her. She makes me better. Learning every day to show up as a devoted husband and to build a family worth coming home to.
Our storyBooks are how I think slowly and deliberately. I gravitate toward theology, biography, history, and ideas that don't fit neatly into a category. Find what I'm reading, what's on deck, and what I've loved on my Goodreads profile.
Goodreads profileSince July 2025, I've led a home-based community group of about 15 members: a weekly dinner and structured Bible study. It's one of my most meaningful commitments: building real community, one table at a time.
Redeeming Grace PittsburghI volunteer with a ministry that visits nursing home residents, singing hymns together and simply spending time with them. A grounding reminder that presence and joy matter as much as competence.
