About

I build and scale products that millions of people use every day: most of my career in the platforms they use or the money they manage, now in the work they create. Over the last five years I led product, design, engineering and business teams in consumer and platform fintech (Nubank, Stripe, Kueski), after a career across cloud, data, AI, and advertising platforms at Google, Meta, Microsoft, and VMware. I pair the platform and developer mindset of big-tech infrastructure with the speed and customer obsession of consumer fintech. Most recently, as VP/GM at Nubank (130M+ customers, Latin America's largest digital bank), I ran a multi-business-unit portfolio and led the company's global Product Function, with ~600 product managers across Brazil, Mexico, Colombia and the US. A few things I'm proud of:- Scaled NuPay (one-click checkout with BNPL) past 10M monthly active users and multi-billion-dollar payment volume across Uber, Amazon, iFood, Adobe, HBO Max and 100+ merchants- Built an ads and merchant-offers loyalty platform from zero to millions of engaged users, powered by first-party data and lookalike AI models- Redesigned the flagship mobile app used by 115 million users- Launche
