Current Work
In 2024, I made the intentional decision to take a sabbatical—a transformative year focused on family, health, and personal growth. This pause has been incredibly rewarding, giving me fresh perspectives and renewed energy. I've been documenting this journey on my blog, sharing reflections about mindful living and self-discovery.
Now, I'm excited to be back building in the AI space. I believe AI has the potential to augment human capabilities in meaningful ways, and I'm focused on creating practical applications that make a real difference in how people work and live.

Background
With over 15 years of experience, I've had the privilege of building products used by millions of people daily, spanning mobile apps, consumer platforms, and AI-powered solutions. Most recently, I co-founded and served as CTO at Super Abstractions (acquired). Prior to that, I led engineering initiatives as Director at Social Capital and managed engineering teams at Dropbox.
My entrepreneurial journey includes co-founding Umano (acquired by Dropbox). Earlier in my career, I contributed to engineering efforts at Google, Yahoo, Tagged, and SocialDeck (acquired by Google).
I hold a degree in Software Engineering from the University of Waterloo.
Personal
I've been married to my wonderful wife Sonya for 11 years. We're blessed with two amazing daughters: Zuri (4) and Nika (2), and our dog Moose, who together fill our days with joy and endless adventure.
Beyond work, I'm passionate about personal growth and well-being. You'll find me working on my golf game, learning piano, or pursuing various aspects of health and wellness. I'm particularly interested in holistic approaches to longevity, incorporating practices like mindfulness meditation, strength training, cardio workouts, cold plunging, red light therapy, sauna sessions, and mobility work.
As a Toronto native, I'm an avid sports fan, cheering for the Raptors, Maple Leafs, and Blue Jays through their highs and lows.
