I am a seasoned technical leader with over 20 years of experience in software. I have had the distinct privilege to wear almost every "hat" the IT industry has to offer.
I began my career on the ground floor, designing and developing custom, database driven websites and web applications. I have worked in a varety of industries building products for ecommerce, entertainment, SaaS, B2B, and B2C. Over the past 10 years, I led cross-functional teams of designers and developers at Epicenter Consulting, a 100% remote boutique software company that specializes in developing high-end, customized business solutions. I am currently serving as the Engineering Manager for Inventory Management at H-E-B. I oversee 2 teams of engineers and am responsible for multiple business critical systems. I am a die-hard problem solver with a true passion for transforming complex business requirements into feasible technical solutions through years of hands-on engineering experience and effective communication skills.
In my personal life, I spend my free time with my wife and three children in Central Texas. My hobbies include cars, motorcycles, brewing beer, and (of course) gadgets of all shapes and sizes.
