About

Half engineer, half entrepreneur. The wide range of experiences in my career has taught me how to approach problems from perspectives that don't always seem obvious. I use that to constantly stay on top of new advancements in technology and apply those to real life. Currently obsessed with the application of LLMs in the domains of knowledge work. Helping our clients execute much faster while applying a fraction of the effort. If you're a top skilled software engineer who wants to work in an org with technical leadership, please DM me.
