I’m an experienced start up engineer and systems architect, co-founder of atVenu, along with my amazing partners Ben Brannen and Derek Ball. atVenu (www.atvenu.com) is focused on maximizing revenue for touring musicians, record labels and venue operators by delivering critical systems to manage and optimize all merchandise and media sales at live events. With improved systems, data and forecasting all stakeholders in the music merchandise business can increase their revenues in what is now one of the biggest sources of net revenue to touring artists. --- I have a wide range of experience building successful product and teams using powerful web and mobile tools. Prior to atVenu, at Tynt.com I was responsible for architecting and leading the engineering team building one of the 10 largest data aggregation systems in the world. Installed on over 600,000 digital publisher sites (like Sports Illustrated, Time Magazine and more) the system had to process over 30,000 events per second and anonymously track over one billion unique users creating 30 billion records every month.I love solving problems that drive people crazy and making their world better as a result!Ultimate Goal: To find the correct balance between throwing mud and slinging it.
