I'm currently CTO at Tendermore, an AI platform that helps teams win government contracts. I previously built Aevy, and co-founded Lunda.ai.

Before that, I worked as a software consultant and as tech lead at Visma. I also helped film a documentary film in Sierra Leone that premiered at Human International Documentary Film Festival.

Software I've built has been used by people at companies like:

Antler
Boston Consulting Group
Deloitte
Google
McKinsey & Company
Snap Inc.
TotalEnergies
