I'm an accomplished finance leader with over a decade of experience building and scaling financial operations at global technology companies. I joined Cursor (Anysphere) in 2025 to establish and grow the company's accounting and finance foundation as it expands its mission of developing AI-powered developer tools.
From 2019 to 2025, I was Finance Lead and Corporate Controller at Grammarly, where I oversaw global finance operations during a period of rapid growth. I expanded the team from 5 to more than 25 specialists across FP&A, accounting, tax, treasury, and international operations.
Earlier, I spent nearly a decade at KPMG in San Francisco as a Senior Manager in the SaaS and financial services practice, advising both public and high-growth private companies through IPOs, complex technical accounting, and international reporting standards.
