ABOUT ME
Ex-Hinge Data Team Founder
Ex-Hinge Data Team Founder

I just wrapped up 5+ years at Hinge, where I grew the data team from just 1 (me) to 50+ people. Along the way, I did just about every data job you can do, building our data warehouse, Looker models, Airflow instance, ETL templates, privacy systems, and lots of other cool bespoke data things that I can't tell you about. We were an AWS shop, and so my expertise includes Python, Redshift, Airflow, PostgreSQL, Kafka, but mostly over the years I developed lots of opinions on the fundamentals good project design principles and code cleanliness.

Interviewing, hiring, onboarding, and mentoring were some of my favorite things to do while I was at Hinge — I loved meeting lots of new people and giving them the resources to guide themselves through hard problems. And now I want to do that with you :)
