What I do
CTO at Simbe — profitable in year one. Before that, I built ML infrastructure at Gen Digital serving tens of millions of users, and grew with a fintech through two acquisitions.
How I got here
M.S. Computer Science from Penn, B.A. from University of Michigan. BofA → Even Financial (acquired) → Moneylion (acquired) → Gen Digital → Simbe (cofounder). Backend, infra, ML. Now CTO at Simbe.
How I can help
Architecture Review
Your system works, but you're not sure it'll hold. I'll dig into your codebase, infrastructure, and processes — then give you a clear picture of what needs attention now, what can wait, and how to get there.
MVP & Technical Scoping
You have the idea. I'll help you figure out what to build first, what stack makes sense, and what you can skip until it matters. No over-engineering, no under-building.
Fractional Leadership & Advisory
Not every team needs a full-time CTO. I can be the technical partner you call for architecture decisions, build-vs-buy tradeoffs, hiring, or just a sanity check before you commit. For earlier-stage companies, I also take advisory roles — lighter touch, typically equity-based.
