Earlier roles ranged from rebuilding Lot18’s front end with mobile-first techniques that materially increased mobile revenue to running a boutique studio delivering CMS and PHP/JS solutions for entertainment brands.

His background in creative direction and large-scale media projects gives him an uncommon sensitivity to design and content strategy in engineering decisions.
