About

Building Technology That Drives Business

Throughout my career, I have operated at the intersection of technology and business strategy. As a CTO and co-founder across multiple ventures, I have learned that the best engineering decisions are the ones made with a clear understanding of market needs, user behavior, and sustainable growth. I do not build technology for its own sake—I build platforms that solve real problems and generate measurable results.

My leadership philosophy centers on hiring strong engineers, giving them clear ownership, and removing obstacles so they can do their best work. I believe in lean teams that ship fast, iterate based on data, and maintain high standards of code quality and system reliability. Whether managing sprints, mentoring developers, or collaborating across sales, operations, and product departments, my goal is always alignment—ensuring that every line of code serves a strategic purpose.

From scaling a food-tech startup to $20M+ ARR to building multi-market e-commerce platforms and creating open-source tools used by thousands of developers, I bring a builder’s mindset to every challenge. I am most effective when I can combine hands-on architecture with executive-level decision making—the CTO who can whiteboard the system design in the morning and present the technical roadmap to the board in the afternoon.
