A little about me

I connect the code
to the real problem.

Software is most useful when it understands the work around it.

I joined FieldRoutes at the startup stage and stayed through its acquisition by ServiceTitan and ServiceTitan’s December 2024 IPO. Over more than seven years on the FieldRoutes platform, I helped lead public API development and directly advised hundreds of customer companies through technical consulting.

That experience connects platform engineering to the businesses using the software: understanding their needs, explaining technical tradeoffs, and helping them work with the system. My broader background spans more than ten years in technical leadership, alongside payments, data systems, creative projects, and hands-on operations.

I bring that foundation to AI development tools without losing the engineering basics: readable code, focused improvements, and a useful handoff.

Featured service / Harness setup

A development workspace.
Help putting it to work.

You know what needs to improve. I help turn it into working software.

I inspect your application, configure the harness for the agreed work, and help deliver a focused first improvement. You get hands-on engineering and a workspace for directing the next repair or feature—not just another chat tool.
