Building products across AI, systems, and UX.

Strategy

At AWS, I helped translate complex cloud and AI capabilities into customer-facing systems and narratives that supported $100M+ in enterprise revenue.

Execution

I built Falcoscan from zero to a live AI market intelligence platform with 300+ users, 6,700+ indexed AI tools, and product workflows spanning analytics, scoring, research, and release management.

Systems Thinking

My background in product design and business strategy allows me to operate between product, UX, AI workflows, and technical execution without losing clarity across the system.

Built to operate across product, systems, and execution.

My background combines business strategy, product design, AI workflows, and hands-on product building. That mix helps me move between the customer problem, the product system, and the business outcome without losing the thread.

Business Strategy

My MBA training shaped how I think about markets, prioritization, operations, and tradeoffs. I use that lens to connect product decisions to growth, revenue, adoption, and leadership goals.

Systems & UX

My product design foundation trained me to see every workflow, dashboard, and tool as a system people need to understand and trust. I care about the structure underneath and the experience on the surface.

AI Product Execution

I actively build with LLMs, automation tools, analytics platforms, APIs, and rapid prototyping workflows. I focus on turning fuzzy ideas into usable products, not just polished concepts.

The value I bring: I can help teams clarify the product bet, shape the user experience, connect the data, and move toward something real.

Away from the desk.

When I'm not at the keyboard, this is where you'll find me.

Shem standing at a scenic vista in New Mexico in a blue sweater and sunglasses.

Travel

Always chasing somewhere new.

I love going places I've never been. Hiking around New Mexico, road trips through the Southwest, finding a quiet vista to just sit at for a while. Time outside is the cleanest way I know to reset.

Shem walking past a wall of his own paintings in a gallery space.

My paintings

Everything on this wall is mine.

I've been painting since college. Acrylics, oils, mixed media, the occasional ink piece. It keeps my eye sharp on color and composition, and reminds me that not everything I make has to ship to be worth the time.

Shem putting at PopStroke on hole 18.

Mini golf

Catch me at PopStroke.

Mini golf is the one sport I take seriously, and even then, mostly for the snacks. Most weekends you'll find me on a course somewhere in Austin trying to beat my last score.

 

The fastest way to reach me is email. I read everything and respond within 24 hours.
