About

I’m passionate about software systems of all kinds. I’m endlessly curious about the principles underlying their success and effectiveness. I'm driven by seeing things that I build working well and solving problems for others. Most recently, I have been working with language models and other AI technologies. I have experience leading teams of developers to be effective and streamlined. I enjoy collaborating with anyone who shares my passion for building software. I think of teams as small communities with a shared urgency, passion and purpose, not machines with a mechanical process. I try to work with like-minded people.
