Here's a little background:

I spent ten years as a front end developer. Eventually I got more excited about the concepts and design behind products than their implementation. At that point I started focusing on UX and Product Management roles.

I also end up leading/managing teams a bunch. I don't always seek those roles, but my proclivity toward bringing order to chaos brings me into them.

I've worked on a couple of startups, including a fitness app that I designed and built entirely myself. You should check it out.

I like to keep busy outside of work too.

Once upon a time I was a competitive fencer. It was a huge part of my life, and gave me some amazing opportunities to travel the world. I even took a run at the Olympics in 2008. I didn't make it, but what an exciting journey!

Since then, I've taken up cooking as a hobby. I spend a lot researching recipes, time teaching myself new techniques, and trying my hand at dishes I've never made before.

Finally, I volunteer (along with my lovely wife) fostering dogs through the Great Pyrenees Rescue Society. I'm a life long dog lover and knowing I'm making a difference in a dog's life is an amazing feeling!
