Member of Go to Market Staff at @openai — working on Codex.

Previously @cline. Before that, computer science at UW–Madison.

I work at the intersection of developer tools and large language models — figuring out how engineers actually use AI in their day-to-day, and turning that back into product. Most of what I do these days is making Codex easier to live with.

Before OpenAI, I helped build out Cline, the open-source coding agent. I write about agentic coding, what works, what doesn't, and where the industry is headed.
