I started in media during the shift to digital. Early enough to see what actually changes and what just gets rebranded.
CTO at Revver — one of the first platforms built around paying creators before that was a thing. Co-founded DigiSynd, which Disney acquired. Spent several years there as SVP of Innovation and Global Creative, helping a century-old company figure out how ideas move from concept to scale. Shipped BB-8 at Sphero. That one was genuinely fun.
I've had a working role in four technology revolutions: the internet, mobile, social media, and now AI. Which means I've gotten good at telling signal from noise — and accumulated enough scar tissue to know which bets are actually different.
Now I'm building Inkwell with Oliver Luckett. We're replacing legacy creative pipelines with an intelligence layer that reflects how creation actually works. Fewer silos. Less process theater. More leverage.
I like problems with no existing playbook, systems that disappear into the background, and teams built on trust.
Based in Los Angeles. Usually biking the hills, deep in a homelab, or connecting dots that weren't supposed to touch — until they were.
