male

I am an entrepreneur and technology evangelist who finds the passion and fun in using technology to improve education.As a member of the founding team at 2U, Inc. and Chief Technology Officer, I was given an amazing opportunity to transform my passion for how technology can change the world into creating award-winning learning management platforms, client relationship management systems, mobile applications, and cloud-based architectures from scratch. That said, I take the most pride in building the most impressive and driven technology team in the industry.

In the past, I led the technology and product team at The Princeton Review where I created and managed the company’s award-winning assessment products. Previous to that I was a part of technology and product development at Thomson Financial and Ogilvy & Mathers.

I take pride in hard work, fun, and the art of creating and delivering technology solutions that work with ease. I also take great pride in my heritage, my family, learning, and being a self-pronounced meat-a-terian. And while you might not expect to beat me in a push up contest, you can rest assured that the technologies I deliver will be innovative, efficient, and high quality.
