Philosopher-hacker
Built my first computer out of Lego bricks and learned to program soon after. Emergence, networks, modes of thought, limits of language and expression are what makes me smile (and stay up at night). Worked on everything from telescopes to web apps to BI tools to analytics infrastructures; but most proud of making people fall in love with data. Worked on everything from telescopes to web apps to BI tools to analytics infrastructures; but most proud of making people fall in love with data. Helped over 20 startups and growth companies become data driven and set up (or level up) their analytics departments. Now channeling my learnings into building a “data scientist in a box” at Metabase.
