Timeline
- VP of Product, Deep Media · January 2025 – present
- Remote / Knoxville, TN. Deep Media is a content security infrastructure company. I own product strategy and roadmap across the platform: Shield, the detection and API layer built around the Content Genome engine, Skills, the composable capability layer, and Guardian, autonomous AI agents that proactively investigate fraud, disinformation, terrorist and violent extremist content, brand safety, NCII, and threat intelligence across the surface, deep, and dark web. Investigations that previously took weeks now take hours, with audit-ready output built for regulators and courts. Deep Media's work is trusted by the U.S. Department of Defense and major technology platforms.
- Director, Product & Business Development, Trust Stamp · May 2023 – December 2025
- Biometric authentication and synthetic identity detection for financial services. I owned the deepfake detection API end to end, from authoring the PRD to packaging detection for financial crimes, KYC, and identity fraud use cases. Led technical engagements with CISOs and security architects at banks and fintechs, and authored 50-page technical responses to federal RFIs on synthetic identity detection, biometric liveness, and AI-enabled fraud threat modeling.
- Enterprise Account Executive, Veriff · November 2021 – May 2023
- Global identity verification platform. Worked six-month enterprise procurement cycles with General Counsels, CISOs, and Heads of Fraud at financial institutions, and built deep expertise in KYC and AML-adjacent identity workflows and the operational reality of fraud teams in regulated industries.
- Founder & CEO, Root Connection · March 2015 – March 2021
- Portland, OR. Founded and ran a scientific research and horticultural design firm, growing it to $1MM in annual revenue. Multi-stakeholder project management and formal research methodology from this work became the foundation for how I design AI products and investigation frameworks today.
