I'm an entrepreneur and engineer passionate about building transformative technology companies. From scaling Airbnb to co-founding Mesosphere/D2iQ, I share insights on startup building, engineering and product leadership, and the entrepreneurial journey.

I’m passionate about sharing what I’ve learned through my Rocketship Howto guide and connecting with fellow entrepreneurs and engineers.

I co-founded D2iQ (formerly Mesosphere), one of the pioneering companies in Cloud Native Computing, after serving as Tech Lead at Airbnb where I helped scale the platform during the hypergrowth years.

When I’m not working, I enjoy making music, mixing cocktails (see my cocktail recipes), and exploring the outdoors on skis, bikes, and foot. You can often find me in Tahoe and I’ve collected some useful resources for skiing in Tahoe as well as the Eastern Sierra.
