about
Formerly mobile engineering at Twitter, CTO Snip.it (acquired by Yahoo!), and Investing Partner at Builders.vc. Now helping early stage companies build the products they want to build.
In my free time I like to travel, eat fearlessly, avoid traffic, work on open source projects, and violate terms of service agreements.
