Hey there, I'm Cole. Originally from San Francisco, I'm currently living in Philadelphia with my wife Mak and our pug, Bruce and currently preparing to move back to the Bay.

An Aerospace Engineer and Economist by education It wasn't until after university that I got sucked into the world of software while dabbling in some basketball-focused predictive modeling. Since then I've spent a good part of my career working with early-stage companies, both as a founder and an early engineer and solving a wide range of interesting problems.

As a full-stack engineer, I enjoy all facets of development; Obsessing over the minutiae of a beautiful data visualization and hammering out a well built API are just two sides of the same coin. I enjoy problem solving, learning new domains, and building things that people enjoy using. I'm currently enjoying diving a bit deeper into database-land and plodding my way down the Postgres Iceberg.

I just wrapped up an amazing two years at Compound building equity modeling software, learning way too much about taxes, and writing great code with some truly fantastic people.

Getting ready to start a very interesting next chapter, so stay tuned!
