Ye Olde About Me Page
Greetings! I'm an engineering team leader and software developer based in Los Angeles, CA. My professional career is focused on People (team management), Platform (architecture & scalability), and Business (strategy & growth).
My work has largely been in streaming media (OTT systems and digital supply chain) and e-commerce marketplaces. I've been blessed to work with many of the world's greatest brands and Web companies, as well as founding companies and apps of my own. You can find my professional history on LinkedIn. I'm also a prolific coder and you can find my open source profile at Github. I mostly work in Typescript and Python.
I'm currently fascinated with the changes coming to software development with the advent of artificial intelligence agents and AI-assisted coding. It's a swiftly evolving topic that engineering departments will need to organize and adopt in order to remain competitive.
I write on this blog about my technology interests: startup life, team leadership, social media technology, home automation and security. You can also find me on Twitter.
In addition to my work & coding life, I'm a dad who loves to play guitar, cook, and spend time outdoors with my dog, Thor. ⚡️ I speak Spanish as well as English. I have a lot of great stories to tell, but that's for another place and time.
⚡️ Thor, Dog of Thunder ⚡️
I'm the CTO of Quiltster, a marvelous quilt planner app which helps quilters visually design their work. It's also a thriving marketplace for quilt kits, patterns, and fabric. Please contact me if you have questions about this company or service.
