You can just do things

All I wanted to do was to put up some simple static web pages with my writing.

What I am apparently doing is creating a piecemeal custom CMS from first principles. Coding bits and pieces and design is by hand.

Professional Bio

Building on earlier technical roles, I've dedicated over 16 years to marketing leadership at venture-backed startups, leading high-performance teams and bringing category-defining products to millions of developers globally across artificial intelligence, infrastructure, and B2B SaaS. As a first or founding GTM leader and advisor, I've collaborated closely with visionary founders, VCs, engineers, and practitioners to build exceptional 0-to-1 early-stage and growth-stage companies — contributing to 3x exits.

What I'm Looking For Next

My priorities today: I'm particularly drawn to the transformative work of the frontier AI labs, neolabs, and cutting-edge AI researchers. This compelling interest aligns with my motivation to tackle hard problems for the benefit of humanity. And I love being an early adopter and advocate of disruptive technologies and their ecosystems — AI research, large language models, LLMs, frontier models, world models, superintelligence, AGI, machine learning, AI infra, AI devtools, open source AI, robotics, open source software, quantum computing, and decentralization, to name a few.

Location

I'm currently based in the beautiful San Francisco Bay Area.
