My Mission

To master the art of building digital workflows that help people complete complex engineering and organizational tasks. I combine my analytical skills with user-centric product design thinking to develop interfaces that allow humans and machines to work together to build a globally abundant world. Today, the most exciting technologies combine machine language with pixel-perfection to provide platforms and services that allow professionals from many industries to accelerate production.

I love working with ambitious teams to design new technological innovations that help humans work with machines to solve complex problems. I've spent close to 15 years studying software developers, startups, and organizations that want to engineer the future. I love helping users understand how to best work with these tools and with each other at scale.

User-Focused Product Direction

A product organization is a combination of function and feel. A great product is an experience that starts upon first contact with the brand's content and carries the user through documentation and tools so seemslessly they achieve results without breaking a sweat. The user thinks - "Wow, they just get me."

Dev-Ops Tools Creation and Workflow Orchestration

The beautiful thing about building tools today is the ease in which today's generations understand what it means to be digital-first. Cloud-first, browser-based, mobile-accessible, distributed. Today's tools are smart, LLM-integrated, allow for automation, and should include elements of monitoring and traceability.

Content-Led Thought Leadership

Video is a medium that can tell human stories faster and with more depth than traditional text. Videos can also help show the entire product experience in a holistic and natural way.

Let's create great content together.

What is Dev-Ops?

Dev-Ops is a set of practices that merge software development and IT operations to deliver applications faster, more relability, and with higher quality releases. It was designed around distributed teams and focuses on building in automated monitoring, testing, and release checkpoints that aid in continous deployment and overall software orchestration.

DevOps stands for Development and Operations. Traditionally, these groups worked separately: developers built software, and operations teams ran it and kept it working. DevOps breaks down these barriers by encouraging teamwork, communication, and shared responsibility throughout the entire process, from planning and coding to testing, releasing, and maintaining software.

I believe that today's Agentic tools need a Dev-Ops approach.


Dev-Ops to Agentic-Ops

LLMs and other GenAI work by predicting and retrieving text in a manner that has never been possible before large language models and emerging modern computing. GenAI can then use these predictions to create new content based on user-provided context and input.

Agentic-Ops: LLMs are like a new programming language that need their own Dev-Ops tools to formalize their safety, use, and scale in production.

Smart Agents will need guardrails, monitoring, security, and rules for how they interact with one another and with our connected world. Otherwise, they become bad actors.

Ghosts in the Machine refer to a non-physical mind. As agents become "smarter", these bots will soon run important tasks without supervision. This brings both opportunities and challenges.

Humans in the Loop means there must be practicial tools and processes that allow our digital selves to co-exist with these artificial creations.

Scientific and Technical Computing

AI is dramatically accelerating science across industries. Examples include models that can map human genomics and predict new pharmaceutical outcomes. Models that can use physics to predict precisely how long a car battery will last, and AI that can aid in new materials discovery through advanced models and approaches that outpace traditional methods.

Language Models Replicating the Genome

Foundational AI models like GROVER and AlphaGenome use deep learning and natural language techniques to analyze and replicate the human genome by treating DNA sequences as language. These models can scan millions of DNA base pairs to predict genetic variants, identify disease-related mutations, and propose new synthetic DNA designs that could ultimately enable rapid advances in personalized medicine and gene therapy. Another example is AlphaFold is an artificial intelligence system developed by DeepMind that predicts the 3D structure of proteins with remarkable accuracy using deep learning techniques.

AI-Driven Digital Twins for Hardware

Digital twin technology—virtual replicas powered by AI—allows engineers to design, simulate, and validate complex hardware systems without relying on slow and expensive physical prototypes. By ingesting real-time sensor data and using machine learning, these digital twins model everything from manufacturing lines to entire factories, accelerating iterations and reducing downtime for predictive maintenance and supply chain optimization. Generative AI further enhances these twins by creating realistic test scenarios and improving simulation fidelity, enabling smarter decisions and faster technological progress.

Predictive AI for New Materials

AI is revolutionizing materials science by rapidly screening possible candidates and simulating their properties, replacing years of experimental trial-and-error with targeted predictions. Models like those developed by DeepMind have predicted millions of new materials for electronics, batteries, and solar technology based solely on atomic composition, guiding scientists to promising formulas with unprecedented speed. Data-driven platforms can design new composites, forecast feasibility, and generate optimal synthesis pathways before scaling up to production, thereby fundamentally shifting how innovation happens.

Companies and Collaboration

Product Partnerships and Ecosystem Automations that tie together enterprise workflows with smart machines.

Enterprise workflows don't live within a single platform or a single team -- my skills are tailored for teams that need someone who has mastered the art of building cross-platform / end-to-end ecosystem solutions that work for every user persona at the company.

The Art of Leadership

I consistently gravitate towards taking ownership across all aspects of the business, ensuring success through diligent stewardship and hands-on support where it’s needed most. My approach goes beyond helping organizations build products and platforms—I actively identify and address gaps, providing extra effort and attention to critical details that empower teams to execute at a high level. Whether coordinating complex initiatives or lending support to technical teams on routine tasks, my commitment to superb execution drives results and fosters a culture of excellence.

Tools Mastery

While my success as an operator has been in building ecosystem partnerships, platforms, and tools, my ultimate passion is in crafting a formula that helps advance the future with passion, precision, design, and an unwavering commitment to excellence.

I believe that both Form and Function are fundamental principles in helping human beings understand how to use technology.

Dev-Ops is not just about programming. It's really about the people and processes involved in reducing friction and automating the lifecycle and deployment of software. What's exciting is today's AI and Agentic conversations is that we have established building blocks that can help us design all kinds of new forms of AI-led operative tools.

Open Source Scientific Knowledge is as important as the invention of the Internet. Teams of researchers working together across geographic regions and through the lens of different domains -- might be the single most important movement of our time. My work with the Julia programming language and my founding of open source tools at Indeed have inspired me to continue celebrating open source science.

Moonshots are worth investing in when they can make a massive impact. I was fortunate to work with Google and Benetech on impact. Benetech was founded to be a different kind of tech company—a nonprofit—with a pure focus on developing technology for social good. “Open Over Proprietary” is one of their Seven Benetech Truths. Read how they joined Google Summer of Code in inspiring young developers to scale impact-focused technology.
