About [ me ]
Hi, I'm Bryan, a product-minded builder who likes shipping things that actually work. My work spans product management, venture, and software, built at early-stage startups, investment firms, and Cornell's research labs. I care about finding the intersection between technology and real user problems, then turning that into something people rely on.
