Meet the baker.

I invented and launched the cum sponge (Google it if you dare), built and sold a venture-backed company, and have been building things on and off the internet for over a decade. Right now that's a parenting newsletter, a couple of apps, and AI Training Day. These days most of my energy goes into that last one — I care about women actually understanding AI, not just having it done for them, because I've watched the gender and career gaps in tech widen every time a room defaults to "let the guy handle it." I'd rather teach a team to fish than hand them a fish and disappear. Half marketing, half AI-brained. You'll find me on Instagram and LinkedIn, or low-key awkwardly pole dancing in my garage. 🍊

What I actually do.

Marketing & growth

GTM, brand voice, lifecycle, community. The kind that took a company to 8× revenue and 300k+ followers.

AI systems & automation

Multi-agent Claude pipelines, overnight agents, human-in-the-loop review gates, reusable skill libraries.

Product building

Six AI-native products shipped solo — iOS, web, and desktop. Idea to TestFlight to live.

AI training

Hands-on workshops that get women's teams actually building — not a deck, not a demo, the real thing. See AI Training Day →
