I write primarily about tech products and the craft that goes into building them. Sometimes, I will indulge myself and think aloud here.
By way of work, I build and invest in technology products, and have held various product and engineering leadership roles at Plaid, Twitter, and Amazon.
You can find me on Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram.
