Summary
I’m an engineering manager with wide-ranging software and hardware experience, a bottomless curiosity, and an optimistic open-mindedness. I have built a career in leadership roles on projects that apply technology in inventive and often unconventional ways. As a coder and a human, I work to create and support safe, open, and trusting teams where people can innovate, fail, and succeed together on projects at the forefronts of possibility. With a good sense of human nature, a fundamental understanding of technical issues, and an ego-free approach, I collaborate to generate ideas, help make good ideas better, connect right- and left-brain thinking, foster an environment where creativity and technical excellence can thrive, and ultimately shepherd wishes into becoming real-world products that meet the needs of human users.
