I have worked with in technology for over 18 years, focusing on startup companies for the last 11 years. Prior to joining Foundry Group as Director of Information Technology I worked for Mobius Venture Capital, and prior to that worked for startup PlanetOutdoors.com in Boulder, CO. I have also worked with a number of technology companies in the Boulder/Denver area including Xaffire Software (acq. Quest Software), StillSecure, Newmerix, ReturnPath and Standing Cloud.
I am also the founder and project leader of Jinzora, an open source web based media distribution application. Jinzora has been a great way to merge my love of music with technology. With a team of a few developers Jinzora boasts well over 500,000 downloads and installs and has been in development since 2003.
Personal
A music major at Georgia State University in Atlanta, GA, I still enjoy playing saxophone whenever I get the chance. A native of Atlanta I have been in Boulder for more than 10 years and am fully caught up in the Colorado lifestyle. I enjoy snowboarding, cycling, hiking, running, camping, and auto racing.
I tend to be very addictive about the sports or hobbies I take up. My current obsession is high speed driving events – basically taking my car and racing it around racetracks as fast as possible. I’ve been doing this for several years and have driven with the BMW club, Audi club, Porsche club, Subaru Club, CECA and NASA. I’ve taken several driving schools in the Lotus Elise and Corvette ZR1.
