Experience
Chief Technology Officer
Jan 2024 — Present · Chapel Hill, NC, US
As CTO at Sakara Life, I lead technology and product management for a high-growth health and wellness brand. I’m driving business transformation through modern solutions, including implementing headless eCommerce with Shopify and Sanity CMS, launching a new data and analytics platform with a customer data focus, and introducing AI-powered tools across the business. I’ve redefined IT strategy with a composable, asset-light architecture, and I’m evolving the team toward full-stack capabilities to reduce friction and accelerate innovation.
