I have been leading software development teams in industries ranging from broadcasting and entertainment to financial services and credit card processing. I believe that communication is the core foundation of motivated, cohesive teams. I also believe that communication is the most important aspect of creating great software.

I have a deep understanding of software systems and technology used for building web-based and mobile apps, video streaming and workflows, and highly scalable cloud-based API platforms. And because I've had the privilege of working with so many wickedly smart, creative people, we've been able to repeatedly align technology goals with business goals at both equity backed startups and fortune 100 companies.
