    About

    Hi! Longtime maker. Built my first hardware 'company' using parts scavenged from dumpsters when I was 10. Good times...found my first pair of rollerblades in those very same dumpsters which got me into hockey too 🥹 /nostalgia Took a left hand turn, went into medicine, started training in emergency. Along the way worked at Khan Academy and the World Health Organization (big data stuff). Took a right hand turn, built an ML company at Harvard focused on medical education. During the pandemic after Harvard kicked us all off campus, I started working on better ways for my team to work together, inspired by my days playing WoW with the homies. Ended up building SoWork (www.sowork.com). Did a TEDx talk about this: "How saving our culture saved our company". AMA, I'm friendly.
