I am interested in the systems between writing code and safely shipping it. I like
making large codebases feel fast, understandable, and easy to change.
At Stripe, I lead Code Forge and Code Review. We build source control infrastructure
for Stripe's massive, fast-moving Git monorepo and improve the code review process,
including an AI reviewer designed to catch problems before production and eventually
approve lower-risk changes. Before Stripe, I was at GitHub.
Technical interests: version control systems, blob-storage-backed database design,
agent harness development, and developer productivity.
Otherwise: pickleball, strategy games like Magic: The Gathering and Twilight Imperium,
exploring cities near and far, and going max effort at karaoke.
Manage 11 direct reports and 3 cross-appointed engineers across Code Forge and Code Review.
Lead engineering strategy in partnership with technical leaders across Stripe's Git monorepo infrastructure, code review process, and AI code reviewer.
Coordinated 15+ infrastructure teams to move Stripe's BFCM code freeze from global to opt-out by service; now helping make it opt-in.
