Grew up in France. Traveled the world teaching dance.
Bilingual from the start, I spent years crossing continents teaching lindy hop and blues -- learning that the best way to connect with people is to meet them where they are. That instinct shaped everything that came after.
Welding shops to cloud platforms.
PBX systems. Embedded firmware. Mobile apps. Aerospace, energy, manufacturing, finance, pharma -- every domain has its own language, and I've learned enough of them to know that the problem-solving never changes. Only the vocabulary does.
Building teams behind the platforms.
Led hundred-million-dollar initiatives. Built engineering teams that helped Nordstrom, Warby Parker, Starbucks, and others solve their hardest problems. The technology matters, but the teams matter more -- getting the right people aligned on the right problem is the actual hard part.
Still solving hard problems. Better views.
CTO and partner, splitting time between Seattle, NYC, and El Salvador. Contributing to open source -- Harness, Drone CI, Homebrew, Terraform, and more. Building teams from wherever the waves are.
