Engineer, Officer, Builder
15+ years shipping software across enterprise and startups, with a parallel career leading soldiers in the Army National Guard.
How I Work
I've spent my career at the intersection of building and leading — from Fortune 50 engineering teams to startups I co-founded. The common thread: I care about the details that make software reliable, maintainable, and worth using.
Fourteen years as an Army National Guard Officer shaped how I approach problems. Leading soldiers through emergency response operations taught me to plan for what can go wrong, communicate clearly under stress, and deliver when it matters most.
