I spend my time at the frontier of AI and autonomous systems—building software that solves real problems and creates leverage in the physical world.

Track record

Co-founded Benevity. Scaled product and technology from day zero to a $1B+ valuation, powering workplace giving for hundreds of the world's iconic brands.
Co-created FreePBX. Open-source communications platform that became a global standard, deployed across millions of production systems worldwide.
