I am an entrepreneur who uses technology to solve problems, build businesses, and create products that people find helpful. I occassionally write bylines about business, leadership, personal finance, consumer advocacy, and technology for Fast Company, FastCo.Exist, VentureBeat, LifeHacker and others.
I am Co-founder and CEO of a Polaris Venture Partners and Y Combinator backed startup called ReadyForZero. Our team creates software to help people control and reduce debt. Also, we’re hiring.
Need more?I began working with Internet technologies in 1997 and have been applying these technologies in new, innovative ways ever since. I hold a degree in cognitive science and human-computer interaction.
Still curious?I started my first company, an Internet service provider, at 17 before moving to Silicon Valley. After working for 2 years in Silicon Valley building Internet infrastructure for large scale e-commerce sites during the dot-com bubble, I returned to study more about the brain sciences and how that can be used to make better technologies. I have helped build teams and launch a variety of consumer and enterprise technology products.
