About

I love taking an idea and creating something from nothing. Over 20 years, I've built platforms serving hundreds of thousands of customers. Deep experience in API design, Linux systems administration, and payment integrations.

I thrive on remote, agile teams where I can guide technical decisions and mentor developers. Huge proponent of open source—I maintain dozens of projects on GitHub.
