What I'm About

I believe access to technology, good information, and democratic institutions should belong to everyone, not just the people who can afford them. The work I find most meaningful is at that intersection: healthcare systems that actually reach people, organizing tools that challengers can afford, AI that earns trust rather than demanding it.

How I Got Here

I knocked doors for Obama in 2012, built data pipelines for the DNC in 2016, then spent seven years as an engineer and leader in healthcare. Joined CareJourney as employee #7 and led engineering through its acquisition by Arcadia, where I run a 48-person org today. Through all of it, the thread is the same: I like building things that matter.

Outside the Terminal

Husband. Dad of two. Hyattsville, MD.

Grew up playing basketball, baseball, wrestling, rugby, soccer, tennis, and track. More of a watcher now: Ravens season ticket holder, and at March Madness every year.

Plays guitar and drums, and likes a little of everything when it comes to music.

Reads a lot about politics, geopolitics, and philosophy. Politics because outcomes matter. Geopolitics because world power structures and events are genuinely fascinating. Philosophy for the critical thinking and the questions about meaning.

Outside of that: biking, hiking, cooking, gardening, the gym, and time with friends and family.
