Senior Manager, Data & AI Products and Analytics Engineering at Disney Studios — a matrixed data and AI product engineering organization running enterprise-wide across the studios. Nights and weekends, the same operating model runs a household-software practice where I'm the only human on the team.
Built independently, outside the day job. Live means a stranger can use it today, Invite means real users behind a gate, In Development means not yet in anyone's hands. Nothing here is aspirational.

Spec-as-code for PMs
AI Prototyping Platform
Most product leaders can describe an AI-native operating model. This one runs on two: a full product organization at Disney, and a one-person practice at home. Same primitives, different scale — and every product above is evidence for the claim.
Roles, not prompts
A principal PM and a principal PMM review every spec before it becomes code. They hold standards, not context — which is why the output stays consistent across sessions that share no memory.
Specs under version control
PRDs, decision logs, and conventions live in the repo with the code they govern, validated on commit. When a decision gets revisited, the reasoning is still there.
Shipping as the forcing function
Typechecks, linting, test suites and content smoke tests gate every deploy; cost guards and liveness checks watch the data collectors. The discipline that makes enterprise platforms trustworthy is the same discipline, just without an org to enforce it.
Every figure carries its measurement method. If it can't be sourced, it isn't here.
