Hi there!

My name is Jesse and I'm an adventurer, product manager, active, and improving in salsa + bachata. My love for traveling, new experiences, unique foods and meeting interesting people across the world is honed from life-changing travel experiences. In my life, I’ve been fortunate to travel to 31 countries in Europe, North / Central / South America, Asia, and Australia.

Close friends would describe me as energetic, laid back, optimistic, open-minded, curious, adventurous and resilient.

As a technology product manager, I love discussing about how new technologies evolve and improve our lives.

I’ve met wonderful people in CS and I look forward to continue that trend by meeting you!
