C.V.

I grew up in small-town Minnesota on the Mississippi River. I’m a designer, developer, and product architect. I’m interested in rethinking society from the ground up, and rebuilding it piece by piece.

• I helped design Signal, the best-in-class encrypted messenger.
• I architected Verso, the theming engine that powers some of the most influential lifestyle brands on the internet: Bon Appétit, The New Yorker, GQ, Vogue, Vanity Fair, Wired, and more.
• For better or worse, I’ve been posting on Twitter — now X — for 15 years straight.
• I listen to a lot of podcasts.
• My friends and I went into Chernobyl.
• I live in Seattle, Washington, where I work remotely for Block, Inc.

Anyone can reach me on X, my DMs are open to the public.
