I’m a technical leader with can-do attitude. Across my career I’ve been fortunate to work on exciting projects and take businesses from zero to maturity. I have managed teams of varying sizes, hiring and developing the best talent in the industry. I have both personally developed and managed teams that develop products/services that have served hundreds of millions of users and driven tens of millions of sales.
In my free time I like to spend time with my family, tinker with technology/software, play video games, read and go hiking/backpacking. Please feel free to browse and learn a little bit more about me. Feel free to reach out and contact me directly via LinkedIn or E-mail.

Amazon
At Amazon I worked as part of Alexa Smart Home where I led a large team of software developers to develop cloud, mobile app, web and device software components. I was responsible for both technical and business aspects of the program, wearing many hats and performing a wide array of duties ranging from software delivery, to product planning, finance and business health.
The three main features I was responsible for were:
Low supply notifications
Receive e-mail, push and voice notifications when your device runs low on supplies.
Smart Re-orders
Your device will automatically re-order any part or product it needs when it needs replacing.
Voice Printing
Ask Alexa to print content such as your shopping list, to-do lists, sudoku puzzles, mazes and recipes.
