About

Approach things directly, but with style. My experience in different industries, technologies, and cultures demonstrate that focusing on respectful-candor, education, and collaboration, unlocks highly effective people. I push to build lean, highly capable teams to accomplish difficult things. Collector of software quirks, and general technology caretaker.
