AI engineering leader, serial founder, veteran builder. 25+ years of engineering experience, most of it at Microsoft, where I shipped software that landed on over 200 million machines. I'm the reason typing "F" in your address bar instantly auto-completes to Facebook. You're welcome. Or I'm sorry. Depending on your relationship with that site.
I've been living and breathing computers since I was 8 years old. I started building things before most people had an email address, and I never stopped. Self-made, opinionated, chaotic good loyalist. When the world went OpenAI, I rolled my own.
Most of my career was spent at Microsoft, where I worked across some of the largest-scale software systems on the planet. The kind of work where a single line of code gets deployed to hundreds of millions of endpoints and you measure impact in continents. That experience taught me how to build things that survive contact with the real world at scale.
Today I lead engineering teams focused on AI and machine learning — LLMs, agentic systems, ML pipelines, data science. I'm most interested in the intersection of AI and practical product delivery: not demos, not decks — shipped software that works.
I am most certainly the people your parents warned you about.
Self-made. Opinionated. Chaotic good loyalist. Working from a cabin in the Pacific Northwest where the dogs outweigh some humans — in more ways than one.
