Experience

1. Co-founder and CTO

   Counterpoint Labs

   Nov 2025 — Present · Charlotte, NC, US

   As the Co-Founder & CTO of Counterpoint Labs, I’m building next-generation supply chain intelligence and automation. My focus is on designing and scaling the technology that brings real-time visibility, operational efficiency, and autonomous decision making to the most complex supply chains, manufacturing, and logistics operations.With a background spanning software engineering, product development, and operations, digitization and AI, I lead both the technical vision and the operational execution of our platform. That means everything from architecting AI-powered systems to optimizing on-the-ground workflows, customer implementations, and continuous process improvement.I’m passionate about transforming how supply chains work — replacing manual workflows with automated intelligence, bridging silos with unified data, and giving operators the tools they need to run faster, safer, and smarter.
