Over 20 years of experience developing complex software solutions in fintech, trading, and blockchain. Currently, I am CTO of Protoblock Labs, where I research, design, and develop innovative software products related to blockchain, bitcoin, and financial markets. Previously, I worked as a lead software engineer for Fortress Investment Group, Bloomberg LP, VMware, and Factom. I'm passionate about using computer science to build innovative solutions, as well as for bitcoin, and open transparent distributed protocols. I thrive navigating green field complex designs and am eager to tackle the unknowns. Outside of work, I love to travel, hang out with my wife and children, play fantasy football, and listen to 90s classic trance. Please feel free to contact me to talk about working with me on innovative software projects. Competencies: C++, Trading Systems, Bitcoin, Exchanges, Blockchain, Fantasy Sports.
