Born and raised in Silicon Valley, I've been in and out of technology and the private sector throughout my career. I've founded non-profits and for-profits, developed venture-funded enterprise software systems, and mentored at-risk youth into high-tech employment. I'm always looking to create and execute a big idea that will do a little good for the world.
