I work in sustainable technology and environmental protection. I have a profound passion for reducing plastic pollution, clean energy, and protecting our wildlife and natural, wild lands.
I am a Senior Software Engineer with Re:Dish, a reusable packaging service. I lead the development of Dishlink, a PoS device that enables diners to check out reusables by simply tapping their credit card; no sign-up or app required. I developed the frontend and backend architecture for Dishlink, which has features such as QR scanning, NFC tapping, and third-party credit card reader connectivity. Dishlink enables reuse at scale; checkout on Dishlink takes less than 3 seconds.
I also work on a team developing Re:Dish's inventory and delivery management software which tracks reusables throughout delivery, collection, and stocking. My main project involved building a machine-learning driven scheduling tool that automatically predicts how much product to deliver to clients based on historical data and current inventory. I assist in developing several other dashboards for software.
I am the lead software engineer at DeliverZero, a reusable takeout container service that partners with restaurants, PoS systems, and online ordering platforms so that customers can get their takeout and delivery in reusables rather than single-use. I oversee all of our software development and integrations.
Developed web and mobile food ordering platform with over 30,000 users using React and React Native that helped merchants eliminate over 350,000 single-use containers
Developed novel inventory tracking technology using Machine Learning that automatically tracked shipping and delivery packaging for over 500 merchants
Built exclusive API integrations with leading online ordering platforms such as Square, Toast, DoorDash, UberEats, Grubhub, Shopify, and more
Developed a REST API and ETL pipelines that ingested over 50,000 transactions and hundreds of thousands webhooks from 15 different third party ordering platforms
Implemented a reusable container program for Whole Foods Market and generated financial and environmental reports for them using Python and Node.js
Built and manage backend database and cloud services that securely host user and merchant data and automate many processes in inventory tracking system
Built a robust notification system that helped customers keep track of their order history and environmental footprint

I am a Co-Founder of Repeater, an app-based reusable takeout container service in Colorado that was awarded a $260,000 grant from the City of Boulder. Repeater partners with restaurants so that diners can get their takeout or delivery in reusable containers instead of single-use plastic. As a self-taught software engineer, I was the sole developer on Repeater's app ecosystem which includes three Android & iOS apps and a web app. The nexus of Repeater is an automated container tracking system that makes reusable packaging scalable and as easy for food services to use as disposables.
Repeater was acquired by DeliverZero in Oct 2022.

Infinity Goods operated as a zero-waste grocery delivery service until Feb 2021. Our mission was to empower consumers to fight back against plastic waste. In grocery operations, we prevented the generation of over 19,000 containers of packaging waste and were chosen by National Geographic as a top 10 circular economy solution for food packaging. As CEO, I led software and web development, supply chain and inventory management, delivery operations and reverse logistics, fundraising, financial analysis, and marketing.
Infinity Goods later became a Reverse Logistics SaaS platform that enabled meal delivery services to switch to reusable packaging. We make reusables more profitable and easier for food services to use than disposables.
