Cofounder at Double SymmetryEngineering at Root Global

I build products and teams. In my free time, I’m dedicated to building open source software that helps others.

About

Hi! 👋 I’m David.

I’ve been building software for 10+ years, and for the past 7+ years I’ve been leading teams, big and small.

While I remain a cofounder at Double Symmetry, I spend my days at Root Global, where we help food and beverage processors calculate farm-level emissions at scale. My focus there is leading the team working on emissions reduction.

Outside of work, I spend a lot of time on open source. My current interests are Rust, game development, machine learning, graphics rendering, and AI. Some of my projects can be found below.

When I’m not coding, I’m usually with my wife and two kids, planning future trips, or making music.
