I'm software entrepreneur living in San Francisco, California.  Recently, I started a company called Keen Labs.  We're currently in San Antonio, Texas, the home of TechStars Cloud.

 


Chops:

metaprogramming, framework development, Python, Javascript, high-concurrency architecture, distributed computing, process automation, analytics, experiment design, interaction design

Perfunctories:

Right-brainer, ENTP / INTP, auditory & spatial reasoner, burnerrecovering free climber

Software philosophy:

  • I work to elevate the technological baseline, amplifying the efforts of my colleagues and my craft.
  • I embrace dynamic typing, multiple inheritance, runtime mutation, and schemaless databases.  I embrace these things because of experience, not because of fashion.  I know they are as dangerous as they are powerful, and that is why I study.
  • The Zen of Python flows through me, but I am not dogmatic.  There is a time and a place for magic.  I am a Rubyist at heart who prefers the language design of Python (explicit namespacing is crucial).
  • I like to do crazy things in Javascript with MooTools and socket.io.
  • I abhor inefficiencies.  I use VimAlfred, and OmniFocus religiously.
