Following two years serving as CEO at Treehouse, I transitioned to a full-time role as partner at Xenon Partners and then joined the no-code mobile app builder Adalo as CTO. Prior to joining the Treehouse team I spent four years as CTO at DreamFactory, creator of the popular namesake API management platform. Prior to DreamFactory I spent two decades building solutions spanning the architectural, agricultural, publishing, and telecom industries.

I'm also author of several books, including:

• SaaS Demos That Sell
• Easy Laravel
• Beginning PHP and MySQL
• Easy PHP Websites with the Zend Framework
• Easy PayPal with PHP
• Easy Active Record for Rails Developers

I'm co-founder of the CodeMash Conference, although after 8 years I stepped away from daily involvement.

Founder of EmailReputationAPI, because I'm sick of bots and other unwanted leads wasting time.
