About

I solve problems by making delightful products. Recently, I co-founded Forestwalk Labs to do just that. The products we’re building use LLMs to help teams do their best work. I also host the Infer AI engineering meetup, the It Shipped That Way podcast, and write monthly about building software and other tricky things. Previously, I co-founded and grew Steamclock, a product studio that makes great mobile apps, and was a software engineer at Apple.
