How’d I get here? I started my first business at 12. The first decade of my career, I was a copywriter and the human voice behind some of the world’s largest brands. Then, in 2009, a chance encounter with a high school friend altered the trajectory of my career.

He had a passion for modernizing legacy code. I had a passion for communicating clearly and with empathy. Together, we’ve been able to modernize some of the most gnarly codebases, helping our clients generate revenue, lower operating costs, and reduce risk.
