I build things that shouldn't exist yet.
Discover My Work and Skills
25 years across Goldman Sachs, healthcare, and my own garage. The problems change. The instinct doesn't.
What I Do
I architect and build systems at the intersection of scale, performance, and complexity — the kind of problems where the margin for error is slim and the cost of getting it wrong is real. I've led teams through once-in-a-generation technical crises, built skunkworks tools that became firm infrastructure, and spent weekends reverse-engineering problems that had nothing to do with my day job.
That's not a work ethic. It's just how I'm wired.
A Brief History
One of 12 engineers who built GS.com. Led ~100 engineers through a global research systems consolidation that earned a federal R&D tax credit. Held the Fixed Income technology stack together during the 2008 financial crisis. Drove FIX message latency from 2–5ms to 0.3ms. Built GSMaps — a full-stack GIS tool — from a hallway conversation on a Friday afternoon.

2019-present
Built for Performance
Competitive race car driver and high-performance driving instructor since 2010. Volunteer firefighter — on-call around the clock, responding to an average of 400 calls a year. Currently running a multi-GPU AI infrastructure build, a mobile interactive fiction platform (Talewell) I built so my daughter could interact with stories as I read them to her, and a book — because the garage projects don't stop either.
