Jason Monma — CTO
I've always had a passion for the arts and technology. UI engineering allows me to combine those passions in a fulfilling way. With over 16 years of professional experience, I have also developed a passion for leadership, mentorship, and guiding the business to set and reach its goals. I believe my experience and perspective allow me to consider implementation details and big picture trade offs simultaneously, leading to elegant solutions and clear cross-team communication.
