I'm an enthusiastic "hacker" in both business and tech. Currently I am a co-founder of ReCharge. Recruiters, I am not seeking a new position. Previously, I was a full-stack software engineer with an interest in security that occasionally moonlights as a designer. Building meaningful, high-visibility apps that can reach a broad audience drives and inspires me, alongside collaborating with the passionate developer community. I volunteer and help organize at conferences (most recently HTML5DevConf), hackathons (Open Source Comes to Campus @ CCSF), or startup events (Startup Weekend Tri-Valley).
