My journey began with a traditional media company that owned print publications in need of digital transformation. Recognizing the importance of custom software in this endeavor, I led the way by bringing in a dedicated team of software developers to bridge the gap. This pioneering effort not only digitized the publications but also laid the foundation for my passion for software development.Additionally, I ventured into the food delivery service industry, introducing the concept when restaurant delivery was still in its early stages. Under the banner of OrderUp, we scaled the business to facilitate over 5,000 deliveries per week before ultimately selling it to GrubHub.In 2018, I successfully exited the traditional media industry, having experienced firsthand the synergy between software, sales, and marketing. Leveraging this experience, I embarked on a new venture and founded Elevato—a software development firm born from the merger of two companies.Today, Elevato stands as a testament to my commitment to technology and its transformative power. We specialize in custom software development, employing a team of 30 highly skilled, US-based software engineers, covering various domains including UI/UX, front-end, back-end, architecture, databases, full-stack development, .NET, Ruby on Rails, PHP/Laravel, Django, and more. Our team operates across 27 states, offering fully remote and flexible solutions to businesses in need of tech resources.At Elevato, we pride ourselves on being the go-to tech team for businesses requiring additional tech support or those looking to establish a tech backbone for their operations. In recognition of our growth and excellence, Elevato earned a spot on the Inc. 5000 list in both 2022 and 2023, while also being named a top company by Clutch in 2023. Our headquarters is situated in the vibrant tech ecosystem of Scottsdale, AZ.I invite you to connect with me to explore potential collaborations, share insights, or engage in discussions about the ever-evolving tech landscape.
