Most of my work day is consumed by my role as the CEO of Bust Out Solutions, a company I founded in 2004 that builds web and mobile applications. The team is made up of top-notch folks that put equal horsepower behind engineering and design, which leads to really polished products.

Here’s my C.V. in a sentence: Born and raised in Oberlin, Ohio, played a ton of soccer, studied biology at Carleton College, did research at CU Boulder and Mayo Graduate School, worked as a software developer at Retek (now Oracle Retail), partied a lot, went on a PBS reality show called Colonial House (and met my wife at the viewing party), founded Bust Out Solutions, spent a few years consulting at Williams Sonoma in San Francisco, settled in Uptown, Minneapolis with Sarah, became an adjunct faculty at Hennepin Technical College where I teach web production, and was recently selected to be part of the Theoroi Project. I’m continually very inspired by family, friends, and colleagues to explore more, try new things, and to always keep learning.
