Speaker

Not your typical tech speaker. From Apollo to Legos to Black Mirror, you won't find a boring deck with code here.

Technologist

From bricking my first Tandy computer (sorry, Dad) to building side apps people love, I have experience tinkering and building from scratch.

# Bio

Short Long

# Work

My entire career, my passion has been driven by the ability to level up engineers.

Originally this was as an Engineering and Product Manager at several software companies, but more recently, I've been privileged to work on developer tooling directly at GitLab. In 2020, I changed roles to be a Developer Evangelist at GitLab.
