The #1 sales engagement platform. And still the #1 Best Place to Work in Atlanta! I returned to SalesLoft to help "write the code that writes the code". My team's role is to support our growing Product Development team with the tools and systems they need to effectively and efficiently get their jobs done. That includes maintaining and enhancing tools for our CI/CD process, QA environments, code quality, code security, developer experience.
Chief Technology Officer
2015 - 2017
The world's best real estate search for realtor websites. I rebuilt the entire platform from scratch to lead the market with the next step in real estate sales engagement. This included a brand-new data processing pipeline custom-built for the realities of today's MLS data infrastructure. With the help of my team, we designed and implemented the best-in-class lead engagement platform for the real estate market. We built the tools that empower some of the top-performing brokers in the country to continue to lead the pack. This new platform has driven triple-digit growth for Showcase IDX, but more importantly has doubled lead engagement for agents on their websites.
Co-Founder and CTO
2013 - 2015
The Southeast's fastest growing SaaS startup. SalesLoft provides tools for sales professionals to discover and connect with high-quality leads. I cofounded the company along with Kyle Porter and Rob Forman. Together, we built tools such as Prospector and Cadence. For both of our flagship products, I was responsible for the frontend UI/UX design and implementation, backend systems architecture, operations management, and product management. I have combined all these skills to provide the company with high-quality products that form the basis of our 2000% YoY growth and 10's of thousands of users.
Founder
2009 - 2013
Atlanta's first co-working space and one of the first spaces in the southeast. After realizing Atlanta's growing entrepreneurial and creative community needed a place to actually get work done, I founded this space to serve the needs of the community. I managed the administrative needs of the business, including establishing our membership system and developing the internal community in the space. We were host to numerous local meetup groups, nurtured hundreds of entrepreneurs and creatives, and served as a hub for startup activity in Atlanta.
Chief Executive Officer
2011 - 2012
A better billing system for web hosts. Founded the company along with Martin Parets and Nate Jacobson of Army of Bees in 2011. The company was one of the first participants in Georgia Tech's Flashpoint startup incubator.
Chief Technology Officer
2007 - 2012
A design and development shop focused on creating custom and effective web solutions for small businesses and organizations. I established the company along with Martin Parets to service the many customers of A Small Orange that needed more than simple hosting. I served as project manager on numerous design and development projects. This included designing UI/UX experiences, implementing them in frontend environments, and architecting all required backend services. I also managed much of the administrative needs of the company.
