🦄 I'm a jack of all trades, master of a few
I'm the VP of Engineering at G2i, where I lead engineering across AI infrastructure, reinforcement learning environments, human data systems, and internal tooling. I've been coding professionally for nearly 20 years and leading engineering teams and orgs for the last 9 years. These days, I spend less time writing every line of code myself and more time building the teams, systems, standards, and technical direction that help great engineers do their best work. I still prefer Next.js and TypeScript for application development, but I can work with just about any stack.
🤖 I'm currently deep in AI infrastructure
A lot of my current work is focused on the systems behind frontier AI development: RL environments, agent workflows, task harnesses, human data pipelines, annotation systems, evaluation surfaces, and the operational machinery required to make all of that useful at scale. The fun part is that this work sits somewhere between product engineering, applied AI, developer tooling, research support, and weird distributed systems problems — which is exactly the kind of ambiguous technical mess I tend to enjoy.
💰 I'm entrepreneurial and apparently bad at sitting still
I'm also the co-founder and CTO of Raise Financial, a financial services startup helping everyday families think more clearly about long-term investing and financial planning. Over the years, I've worked across startups, consulting, open-source, fintech, AI/ML, healthcare, intelligence, entertainment, and large-scale engineering orgs. The common thread is that I like building things from zero to one, cleaning up complexity, and helping technical teams move faster without turning everything into chaos.
💻 I'm passionate about open-source software
I served as the Federated Learning and Engineering Team Lead for OpenMined for a number of years and was one of the original founding members of the community. That experience shaped a lot of how I think about privacy, data ownership, distributed systems, and the relationship between research communities and production engineering. I'm still excited by open-source projects that sit near the edge of what the industry is trying to figure out — especially in AI, privacy, developer tooling, and infrastructure.
