20 years. Three continents. One craft.

I started writing code in middle school, mostly out of curiosity. Two decades later I'm still at it — only now the problems are bigger and the stakes are real.

I started at AutoZone — six years doing research, catalog analysis, and business intelligence for their merchandising team. That's where I learned that understanding the business problem is more important than any technology.

From there I worked at Siemens Healthineers in California, and at Xapo Bank — the fintech founded by Wences Casares — where I was part of the team that helped turn a startup into a licensed international bank. For the last six years I've been working with Sean Parker's companies, Aircore and Cantina Labs, building real-time social platforms out of New York and California.

I've also built products of my own. Not as a side project — as a natural extension of what I do. When I see a problem worth solving, I build the solution. Livora and El Marshal exist because of that instinct.

I also have a Master's degree in Psychotherapy. Understanding how people think, where they get stuck, and what they actually need has made me a better builder.
