I do like hearing from people who genuinely want to learn or have shared interests.
I've been a part of a number of small companies and startups at all stages of their life and I'd love to hear about your side project or offer feedback where I'm able.
I deeply enjoy startups. I'm currently at Brain-CA Technologies (seed stage); before that, Era Software (Series A, acquired by ServiceNow and folded into Lightstep) and earlier, VNDLY (Series B, acquired by Workday). I've also founded a couple of my own — NullServe and Pepperonio (AngelHack Cincinnati 2014 winner).
I graduated from the University of Dayton College of Engineering with a B.S. in Computer Engineering. My interests sit around serverless, DevOps, and cloud-first infrastructure.
