I'm a community-driven operator who turns developers, builders, and GTM teams into real momentum — by showing the work, not performing it.
Over 15+ years I've connected brand, go-to-market, enablement, and partner programs into systems leadership can actually act on. I care most about the people side: onboarding, advocacy, feedback loops, and helping a community feel like it's going somewhere.
I'm a daily power user of agentic AI coding tools — running multiple long-lived agent loops, shipping production work, and pushing the limits of what these workflows can do. That hands-on credibility is how I earn trust with technical communities.
I treat community as a growth function and AI as a judgment tool, not a shortcut. I'm the person who actually replies, follows through, and helps the next builder get unstuck.

What I do
Build and run communities developers and builders actually want to be in — onboarding, advocacy programs, events, moderation, and feedback loops that turn members into champions.
Daily hands-on driver of AI coding agents — running multiple long-lived agent loops and shipping production work. The technical credibility that earns trust with builder communities.
Meet developers where they are. Create content, demos, and conversations that help people get unstuck, level up, and feel ownership over the tools they use.
Direct brand, demand, and multi-channel programs — then connect them to community so growth compounds through real people, not just paid channels.
Stand up the operating system behind a community: metrics, rituals, tooling, and feedback pipelines so leadership can see momentum and act on it.
Translate complex technology into clear, human narratives — talks, posts, and sessions that make people care and bring them along for the journey.
