Empowering startups and high-growth companies to build, scale, and optimize their technology with battle-tested leadership from a CTO who's been there.
After working with startups and high-growth companies for over a decade, I've developed a passion for helping early-stage organizations navigate their technical challenges and opportunities. Having been in the trenches as a software engineer, technology leader, and seed stage CTO, I understand the unique pressures of building while scaling, making critical technology decisions with limited resources, and establishing foundations that support rapid growth.
I partner with founders and their teams to solve complex technical challenges, optimize operations, and drive business value through strategic technology leadership. My services are specifically designed to meet the needs of startups and scaling companies—whether you're building your first product, growing your technical team, or preparing for your next funding round.
