In my professional life, I have extensive strategic consulting and software delivery experience within the Agile development methodology. I have a passion for building web and mobile applications that has taken me around the world. In the last ten years, I have lived and worked in India, Germany, Australia, the US and UK .

I speak regularly about these kinds of topics and hope that other people find them as fascinating as I do (this photo is me giving a PechaKucha style presentation in Chicago).

Recently, I traded in my passport and suitcase to return to Chicago. I am currently serving as partner and CEO at Table XI, a software consultancy specializing in web and mobile application design and development.

In 2014, I founded Ops Conf (short for Operations Conference) to bring together a global community of software companies to share insights and swap ideas on how to effectively run a consulting organization.

I am a graduate of Northwestern University with a BA in Economics and a minor in German. Independently, I am now studying musicology and general music theory. A huge classical music fan, I try to spend as much free time (as a father of two has) learning about and listening to new music. I recently joined the Associates Board at Ravinia, so I can share this passion with others.

Most importantly, I am a father of two incredible girls (who are growing up far quicker than I am willing to admit).
