About Me

Hi. I'm Dan. Thanks for checking out my little spot on the Internet.

At this very moment, I'm putting 110% of my energy into working with LLMs and neural nets to build something new. More on that soon. 😉

Here are some other things I've done:

Founder

My most recent focus was starting Champify. Champify helps sales teams at large enterprise find their best advocates and sell smarter. I collected an embarrassing amount of expertise in Salesforce and how GTM teams work end-to-end. I also learned enough Apex and SOQL to last me a lifetime.

Data Engineering, SDKs, and Developer Experience

At Heap, I helped scale our data collection infrastructure and maintained our client-side JavaScript SDKs as we scaled traffic several magnitudes during COVID. I also started our developer tooling / experience team because I like fast build times and making engineers happy.

Early-Stage Startups

Through Lionheart Software, a boutique software studio, I was deeply involved in building the foundational technology for several companies, some of which are now quite successful.

iOS Development

I've been building iOS apps since the iPhone SDK was first released in 2008. Here are a few that you might like!

Viral Apps

You might also know me from Breakup Notifier, a site I wrote that went viral a long time ago (it was acquired and unfortunately, is no longer running). Breakup Notifier was one of the first viral websites of the social media era, and was featured in Time (both in print and online), Jay Leno, and many others.

About This Blog

This site is hosted on GitHub Pages. The directory structure and files are generated by a home-grown static site generator (some details on that are here).

All posts and pages are written in Markdown and stored in SQLite.

Thanks for reading. :)
