Who I am

I’m a product strategist and technologist driven by AI, cloud, and user-centric innovation. Over the past 15 years, I’ve led transformative solutions—from AI-powered support bots that boost NPS to product roadmaps delivering $15M+ in new ARR. My focus? Turning bold ideas into measurable impact.

Resilience and relentless drive define me. I’ve faced the highs of early success, the stagnation of running my own business, and the weight of unexpected personal loss. Through it all, I’ve emerged sharper, more focused, and fearless in my career.

Edward was a natural at all of these things, a fearless and intrepid leader who owned all the outcomes, much to the delight of some of our biggest customers." - Eric Miller VP of Data & AI at ClearScale
