I'm a software engineer, founder, builder, writer, runner, athlete.
I'm currently on a professional sabbatical. My intention with this time is to build and prototype as many different ideas as I can, get back into a regular cadence of writing, and have fun on the internet. You can read more about what this all means here.
Some interesting things I have worked on over the years:
- Advisor/Contributor at El Cap, a VC fund investing where new technologies collide with established industries.
- Architect behind Gitcoin's Allo Protocol, an Ethereum smart contract-based protocol for public goods funding and capital allocation.
- Co-founder of Cabin, a DAO building a decentralized city.
- Founder of The Solidity Guild, a community of practice for smart contract engineers.
- Founder and CEO of Hawthorne Interactive, a full-stack product studio (Acquired).
- Faculty Director for the Software Engineering Immersive course at General Assembly.
Writing
I write on topics like management, productivity, and career advice, all generally through the lens of being a software engineer. I also write about programming, generally, and specifically about JavaScript and Python.

Contact
I try to keep a pretty low profile, despite thinking and working in public. If you'd like to work together, the best way to get a response is to have a mutual contact introduce us. You can learn more about the kinds of things I'm interested in working on here. Otherwise, the best way to reach me is on X.
