I think I can trace everything I do back to a profound love for truth. I love truth-seeking people, organizations, and processes.

Work
I want to build long-lived robust systems that bring value to society. I do my best work when it involves some mix of infrastructure, safety-critical systems, distributed systems, identity, scaling, and low-latency, high-throughput requirements.
I've worked at Amazon Web Services, building AWS CloudTrail and security infrastructure at AWS Security; Google[x] Project Wing, building autonomous flying airplanes; Stripe, building money movement & storage economic infrastructure primitives for the internet; and a few startups including Card Kingdom.
