Professional Profile
Founder, software engineer, leadership facilitator, and coach with more than 16 years of programming experience and more than four years of professional coaching and consulting experience. Founder of K2Quant, Vocora, and Photora, building businesses in quantitative technology, language learning, and AI-assisted product photography.
I currently work as a Leadership Facilitator at Gruccia. My work also includes approximately a decade of leadership-course involvement, group facilitation, learning-program design, and family-support work. Current independent inquiry examines reflective practice, durable learning, leadership, and what happens when people move from supportive learning environments into contexts that do not reinforce the same ways of thinking and acting.
