I’m an engineer at heart with years of experience in technology and entrepreneurship. I am focused on technology to drive innovations, create solutions, improve efficiencies, and create a better world. I have an interest and knowledge in a wide range of subjects with creative pursuits in technical and non-technical disciplines. One of my hallmark qualities is to be hyper-focused and productive with a resourceful and collaborative approach to delivering results.

I have deep knowledge in mobile applications, guest engagement, and product management across hospitality and blockchain industries. I’ve managed remote and offshore teams.

On my spare time I spend a lot of time with my wife and kids. I also enjoy running when I can get out. If we have time we love to camp and hike as a family. I also have a deep appreciation for photography. When I’m not up to any of these things you’ll find me listening to shortwave radio or on the ham radio waves - my call sign is K6KZO.
