My Story

I've spent my career building, scaling, and fixing engineering organizations. The patterns repeat everywhere: startups making critical technical decisions without experienced guidance, scale-ups losing velocity as they grow past 10 engineers, established companies weighed down by legacy systems. These aren't unsolvable problems — they just need focused, experienced leadership.

I prefer building to managing bureaucracy, and I work best when I'm embedded directly with a team — not writing reports from the sideline. My approach is practical and direct: understand the real situation, focus on what matters most, transfer knowledge so your team can maintain momentum without me. I'm based in Halifax, Nova Scotia and work remotely with clients across North America and Europe.

My Experience

I've been in your shoes

Startups

Building from Zero

I've helped founders make their first technical hires, choose the right technology stack, and build MVP architectures that don't need rewriting in six months.

Scale-ups

Scaling to 100+

I've led engineering teams through rapid growth — designing team structures that reduce coordination overhead, implementing metrics that matter, and building platform foundations that scale.

Enterprises

Modernizing the Enterprise

I've migrated monoliths to modern architectures, moved legacy systems to the cloud, and introduced DevOps practices to organizations that were still deploying manually.

How I Work

I work directly with your team — not through layers of junior consultants. My engagements are designed around knowledge transfer: I solve the immediate problem while making sure your team understands the approach well enough to maintain and build on it. I don't create dependency, and I don't stick around longer than I'm needed.
