I build agentic systems that make teams faster.

I’m currently focused on building the Agent Platform at Coinbase. Before this I led teams in DevX, app infrastructure, and trading systems. I call Denver, CO home and get to bike, ski, and fish year-round with my family. See what else I’m currently into.
