San Francisco, CA

I am the Founder / CEO of VigLink. We've been in the press.

Things I've done previously:

  • Associate at Founders Fund, responsible for a deal that stayed under the radar and member of the SpaceX deal team.
  • Consulting architect to the BBC to reform the then-struggling iPlayer project.
  • Director at Microsoft in charge at various times of product for XBox Live Video Marketplace, Zune Marketplace and MSN Entertainment.
  • Search and AI research for Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen at Vulcan.
  • Director of Advanced Technology for Echo Networks.
  • An M.Eng and B.Sc in Computer Science from MIT and an MBA from Harvard Business School.

If you are interested, you can take a look at my resume, or check out my blog. You can find me on LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter.

My Master's Thesis, Hive: A Software Infrastructure for Things That Think is also available.

For humor value, check out the VigLink video I did.
