I am a Product Lead at Amazon, and love taking ideas from concept to impact. After MIT Sloan, I joined the MIT Media Lab to make sending money as easy as sending an email. Before MIT, I was a Vice President of Product Management at First Data Corporation, leading a family of products offering bank accounts to unbanked customers. I have also spent three years in the startup world, raising seed funds, scaling up business models and managing a post-acquisition integration. I appreciate, want to help, and look to learn from, people who challenge the status quo. I am rooting for Bitcoin.
I hold a BS from the Bucharest Academy of Economic Studies, an MBA from the University of Arkansas and an MS from MIT.
