Background
Having spent two decades leading analytics for global brands and AAA games, I’ve mastered the art of turning raw data into clear, actionable strategy. I now bring this experience to you, providing the same high-velocity research and modeling I once delivered to publishing and studio leadership at EA and 2K.
- Built and scaled analytics organizations and data-driven product strategies at 2K Games and EA Sports
- Product-market fit: validating your product thesis against player behavior and motivation to sharpen design and go-to-market strategy
- Live services: optimizing player retention, monetization, and user acquisition at a scale of millions of daily users
- Actionable forecasting: modeling that holds up to executive scrutiny and guides multimillion-dollar investments
- Applied AI: separating the hype from the ROI to deliver tools that organizations can use

19 years at 2K Games, Electronic Arts, Capital One, and Deloitte. Worked on 28 titles, including:
Work with me
Whether you need a tactical sprint, help unblocking a launch, or a recurring advisor to guide your product strategy, I plug into your team to turn data into competitive advantage.
Four ways to work together.
-
Sprint
You have one clear problem and you want it solved. I build it, document it, and hand it over to your team.
Telemetry design, a launch war-room dashboard, or a competitive teardown.
-
Retainer
Your team has the people, but you need a senior expert to stress-test your strategy.
Investor deck reviews, build-vs-buy analysis on AI vendors, and KPI sanity checks.
-
Head of Data (Fractional)
You need a data leader before you are ready to hire one. I set the roadmap with your leadership team, then the hiring plan and the metrics you run on.
The data roadmap for a new title, hiring your first analyst, or reviewing AI spend.
-
Ad Hoc
A number dropped and nobody can say why, or you do not know where to start.
A diagnostic read on why retention dropped, or a ‘fix this first’ plan.

How I work
-
Intro call.
Thirty minutes, free. We strip away the jargon to find the actual problem. We define the specific goal, the constraints, and whether I am the right partner to bridge the gap.
-
Defined scope.
A one-page summary with accompanying details. We define what we’re building, what ‘done’ looks like, and the timeline. No corporate red tape: just clear expectations so we can start.
-
The build.
I advise and I execute. You see the work as it happens: daily updates, live models, and functional reporting. I iterate in the open so you are never surprised by what comes next.
-
Built to last.
I don’t leave you with a deck you open once. Everything I build is documented, production-ready, and fully owned by your team. We decide the next step, or I finish the job.
