I'm a Design Technologist based in Denver, CO, and I’m the VP of Engineering at Rewiring America. We’re building tools to help American households #electrifyeverythingPreviously I led engineering for Square Financial Services (Square's de novo bank) to integrate with the Federal Reserve and build Square Savings.My early career focused on web-based mapping and visualization software to explore, explain, and interact with data. I'm now equally passionate about growing software engineering teams and helping to shape products and organizations.I enjoyed a number of roles at Square including hands-on engineering for Square Capital, where we offered fast funding and effortless payback to small businesses. I led teams on Square’s Point of Sale (iOS and Android payment processing), Square Dashboard (web and iOS sales reporting) and Onboarding (cross-platform identity verification and signup).In 2010 I co-founded Bloom Studio with Ben Cerveny and Jesper Andersen. The iOS music player Planetary we created with Robert Hodgin was acquired by the Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum as DIG001 – the first piece of software in the National Design collection.Previously I created interactive graphics, maps and data visualizations for Stamen Design in San Francisco and wrote passenger flow simulation software for YRM, a London-based architecture firm. I studied Artificial Intelligence with Mathematics at the University of Leeds, and Virtual Environments, Imaging and Visualisation at University College London. I was an early participant in the Processing language and community and one of the first contributors to OpenStreetMap, a project that aims to create free maps of the world using GPS and aerial photography.
