I build things that work.
I'm an operator, founder, consultant, and builder.

I spent eight years as CEO of Holo Limited, building and running a globally distributed infrastructure company across 14 time zones. Before that, I worked in enterprise process engineering and product development at Level 3 and built and operated technology companies.
