The Convergence

Why This
Matters Now

" The most impactful innovation happens at the edges — where technology meets human performance, where data science meets institutional leadership.

That's where I've built my career. From building interfaces for medical imaging to digitizing national sports federations, from leading technology at startups to governing institutions — every role has sharpened a singular ability: leading complex, multidisciplinary projects where technology serves people.
