Companies

Over the past ten years, I've started three companies, the most recent of which is Fun on the Internet. Below is a little bit about Cool Stuff, the studio's first product, as well as the products built at my previous companies.

junto

The wonderfully simple way to save and share cool stuff from the web.

Cool Stuff is an iOS and web app for saving all the cool stuff you find on the web. Built with React Native, React Native Web, FastAPI, and distributed SQLite (using LiteFS).

JUNTO

Interactive courses for work skills.

Junto was an iOS and Android app designed to help you learn all the skills required to succeed at work, but that are not taught. Things like negotiation, creative thinking, motivating teams. An innovative interactive format made learning easy and fun 🍄.

Junto Demo

As co-founder and CTO, I designed and built the entire product: the apps with React Native, and the API and backend systems with Python,Django, and Celery.

Junto was put to bed in late 2020 due to Unforeseen Market Realities™.

gather

A data management platform for customer success teams.

Started in London 🌧, accelerated by Techstars in NYC 🍏, and finally landing in San Francisco ☀️, Gather was a powerful data management platform designed for customer success teams.

Gather ingested all your customer data, including entity data and event data, then provided higher level heuristics and insights like likelihood to churn and suitablity for upgrade, behaviour-based alerts, and task automation tools.

As co-founder and CTO I designed and built the entire product with React, Redux, Python, and Celery, and deployed it on GCP.

Gather dispersed in 2019 due to Substantial Market Difficulties™
