AI Product Builder | Marketing Strategist | Product Manager | Writer
I’m a cross-functional strategist and builder working across AI products, marketing, product management, and research-driven content. I help early-stage companies, creator platforms, and creative-technology teams turn ambiguous ideas into launch-ready products, clear positioning, scalable growth systems, and compelling narratives. My experience spans building an AI relationship-insights MVP, leading marketing and product launches at SuperRare, managing digital products at Axios, redesigning a creator platform from user and behavioral insight, and producing investment and market research. I work hands-on from strategy through execution, using tools including ChatGPT, Claude, Codex, Lovable, Supabase, Figma, analytics platforms, and modern marketing systems. I hold an MBA in Finance & Entrepreneurship from Columbia Business School and a BA in Economics from Howard University. My services are organized across four capabilities: 1) AI PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT & AUTOMATION • AI product strategy, prototyping, prompt and workflow design, and AI-assisted research/content systems • Rapid MVP development using ChatGPT, Claude, Codex, Lovable, Supabase, Figma, and Framer • Built an AI relationship-insights proof of concept that generated 30+ real user conversations in three days; designed 53 screens across seven end-to-end flows and implemented 25 user stories in four days 2) MARKETING • Positioning, go-to-market strategy, product launches, content systems, social strategy, creator/community programs, partnerships, and analytics • Rebuilt SuperRare’s content operating model, increasing X posting volume 616% and comments 914% • Led campaigns spanning the SuperRare × Objkt Digital Art Festival, Liquid Editions, and the Synthesis Hackathon, including strategy, creative, partner coordination, live execution, and performance reporting • Built repeatable audience and event programs that generated 137 RSVPs and a 239-person waitlist for a 100-person event 3) PRODUCT MANAGEMENT • Product strategy, roadmaps, user research, requirements, onboarding, launch planning, KPI design, and cross-functional delivery • Experience taking consumer media, creator-platform, AI, and public-sector products from ambiguity through launch and iteration • Launched Axios products reaching 172K subscribers across five cities and supported products reaching 447K subscribers • Translated partner and behavioral insights into a redesigned digital-art platform interface and implementation-ready priorities 4) WRITING & RESEARCH • Long-form editorial, newsletters, founder/executive voice, thought leadership, market research, interview preparation, editing, and fact-checking • Research and strategy work across consumer technology, media, digital ownership, creator platforms, venture capital, and AI • Authored a 30-page investment thesis and ecosystem analysis and built a newsletter with a 48.65% open rate • Comfortable synthesizing technical, cultural, and business topics into clear writing for expert and general audiences I’m available for focused deliverables, ongoing fractional support, and cross-functional projects that combine these capabilities.
