For the last 15 years, I’ve focused my career on leading software development teams. Initially, my focus was game development and live operations, but more recently been working in the blockchain development and decentralized finance (DeFi) space.My earliest career experiences came from the dynamism and speed of startups in the game industry as an individual contributor on game projects. Quickly thereafter I took on leadership duties within Disney, and then RockYou managing the complete lifecycle of multiple game projects and central technologies.I founded a blockchain focused engineering firm called First Foundry in 2016, which has roughly doubled in scale each year since. First Foundry has contributed to notable blockchain projects Rally (rally.io), Forte (forte.io), and projects in consumer media such as Triller. First Foundry is also an LP in multiple venture funds and a seed investor in various startups with a focus on blockchain infrastructure & DeFi.More recently I’ve taken direct operating leadership roles at Rally as Chief Operation Officer (COO), and now as VP Platform Development at Forte.
