I'm the Vice President of Developer Products at the Linux Foundation, the nonprofit organization enabling mass innovation through open source. Together with the world's leading developers and tech companies, we are solving the hardest technology problems by creating the largest shared technology investment in history. Nearly 1,000 of the most critical open source projects are under the umbrella of the Linux Foundation, including Linux Kernel, Kubernetes, PyTorch, Node.js, and many more.

Previously, I co-founded crowd.dev, the connected developer data platform. We enabled open source and dev-first companies to centralize all touch points developers have with their brand - be it in community, product, or commercial channels. crowd.dev was acquired by the Linux Foundation in 2024.

In other previous roles, I supported early-stage dev-first startups in the areas of community building, product strategy, and business development. I have also initiated several developer conferences and meetups, for example, the FuzzCon Europe, the Open Confidential Computing Conference (OC3), or most recently the Open-Source Drinks series with events in Berlin, London, and New York.

Always open to connect (as long as you don't want to offer me development or recruiting services)!
