I'm a builder of software, products, teams, and companies.

I developed, shipped and supported multiple production deployments to the world’s most demanding enterprise customers, utilizing decades of experience developing multi-tenant SaaS, web, client/server, desktop, and systems software/device drivers. Not just stitching open source libraries together, I understand how systems work and have strong engineering fundamentals.
