BACKGROUND
Computer scientist, technical founder, and full-stack developer with 8+ years of experience bringing ideas to life. I have a passion for problem-solving and applying technology in innovative ways. Extensive experience in going from the first iteration of a prototype to the first customer using the product, as well as an intimate familiarity with the delicate balance between the needs of early-stage startup growth and those of long-term company scale. I have a pragmatic and practical approach to development; knowing how components and systems should be structured, as well as the realistic limits of the project's resources and how said limits will impact the ultimate design. I work fast, prefer agile workflows, and frequently communicate to ensure we are moving closer to completing our key objectives.
Previous experiences in leading small remote teams, serving as an individual contributor, as well as working in several one-man-army roles laying the foundations for the future team and product growth. Familiar with early-stage to growth-stage startup financing, hiring, and technical strategy. Strong background in optimizing product/market fit, competitive landscape analysis, and establishing product and/or company-level differentiators. University background with a heavy emphasis on research and practical applications of artificial intelligence (AI) and natural language processing (NLP).
Always open to new challenges and opportunities.
