I'm currently the founder of Snackbar, a macronutrient tracking and diet coach mobile application. Snackbar's mission is to democratize access to the latest in science-backed nutritional guidance and premium health and wellness tools.

From 2018 to 2024, I was co-founder and VP of Engineering at Bid Ventures, a daily fantasy sports startup that operated fantasy scoring-based player markets. My responsibilities include setting our technical direction, growing our engineering team since its inception and leading our mission-critical market making operations.

I am credited as an inventor of many of our innovative clearinghouse and settlement mechanisms.

Bid Ventures was aquired by Splash Sports in mid-2024.

From 2017 to 2018, I was the Director of Engineering at Northout, where I was responsible for leading more than sixty globally-distributed engineers and designers. I also worked with a number of client startups to guide technical architecture, product design, and team building.

From 2014 to 2018, I was the founder and lead developer at Onecast, a podcast studio that developed WebRTC-based recording and editing software used by customers from the New York Times, CNBC and ESPN.

From 2012 to 2014, I worked on software design and development for the integration of LiDAR testing of automotive radar sensors at Autoliv.

I studied Computer Science & Electrical Engineering at WPI from 2009 to 2014.
