We are in a hundred year period of profound change, where our relationship with technology is redefining what it means to be human. As architects of our digital world, we have an opportunity to shape the future.I love consumer facing applications, and designing and developing all the technologies to bring a product to market. I typically join startups early and have learned to wear many hats. I'm happy being an individual contributor working on hard problems, but I am almost always pulled into engineering and product management to help drive our teams.I have a broad and deep understanding of the technologies used to deliver scalable mobile online user experiences and am an active developer. My current favorite mix is React Native for iOS/Android/Web, AWS (Lambda, SQS, SES, RDS/MySQL, S3, Cloudfront, CloudWatch, VPC, Route53), and of course AI (OpenAI, Llama, Gemini, etc.). I was lucky to have joined Nuance Communications pre-IPO and helped build an AI powered natural language voice assistant in 2000 that helped Nuance IPO. A few years later I was back at SRI helping launch Tempo.AI which was later acquired by Salesforce. I'm into my third AI startup now with Matchwise.AI
