2014 - 2025

Far Hills, NJ

Something I'm proud of: I worked to ensure that my team was ready for just about any challenge thrown our way.

Need a VR proof of concept for a pitch? We learned Unity in a week.
Multiple API integrations between new and legacy systems? We built the middleware in two days.
Need to explain the difference between machine learning and generative AI? We had those slides by EOD.

Through ideating on new or unfamiliar tech just for fun (especially when it wasn't relevant to client work) and focusing on "What Ifs" like “What if we tried this?” or “What if it worked like that?”, I was able to use the team's own nerdy curiosity against them to find answers, and in doing so, we always had, at minimum, a base knowledge of most new technologies we might encounter in a pinch.  

... and they never even knew what hit them.
