My Story

I ditched the B2B ladder to build products that actually matter

15 years climbing from developer to CTO. Worked with brands like Glenfiddich and Volkswagen. Then realized: who cares? Now I'm building products that help people become who they aspire to be.

Freedom to Focus

Freedom to Focus

10 years remote because it's where I thrive. Deep focus, family time, and work that fits life, not the other way around.

My Mission

I build products that help people become who they aspire to be.

After years of B2B work that felt hollow, I've found what matters: creating tools that genuinely improve lives. Whether it's meditation, productivity, or personal growth—I'm here to build products that make a difference.
