I am an entrepreneur and programming nerd at heart and have been developing software since the age of 12. I'm passionate about the fine details and the kind of outside the box thinking that fuels creative solutions. I have been involved with startups in both the US and Europe since 2005 after working for the US Air Force dealing with what we now refer to as "big data".I've launched numerous mobile, desktop and web applications and services on a global scale and know what it takes to make a great product. In 2011, I brought mapping and location services to the original Kindle Fire along with anti-theft prevention, utilizing loopholes in the Android operating system to truly prevent and track theft. In addition some of the products I have developed have sat on the shelves of Walmart packaged together with other top brand software.I have a heavy interest in ad-tech, IoT, and algorithmic trading in the equities, futures, currency and crypto currency markets. I believe block chain and distributed apps will greatly impact the world.
