Micro
AI-native email and CRM, backed by a16z. Seed-stage, about ten engineers. I own the drafting, meeting intelligence, and follow-up systems that sit on the inbox — and Prism, the CRM data layer they all read from.
Architected AI drafting and auto-labeling for email and LinkedIn.
Shipped live meeting intelligence — transcripts, action items, prep, summaries.
Launched follow-up automation, approval-gated, on the same ingest path.
Owned Prism: a typed object graph on Postgres with recursive traversal and access control. The CRM is a graph; queries have to walk it without becoming a permissions leak.
Ran user onboardings with the CEO and shipped the product fixes that came out of them. Built the object-agnostic view library its AI composes into apps.

Looking for someone who ships the product, not just the tickets?
I build LLM-backed products that have to hold up on real inboxes, real users, and real load. If that's the work — say hi.
