Hi, I'm Max.

A technologist who thinks deeply about the implications of what we build: on the product, on the people using it, and on the planet. I embed the right questions into how we evaluate ideas, thinking through a solution's implications from every angle and testing the limits of technological solutions. I want to build technology that is genuinely good for people and makes our planet a better place.

Belief

Building is core to
humanity.

I believe everyone is a builder in some way, shape, or form. I love learning about people's passions and how they build to support their ideas. Even more, I love building to support what I believe in.

Being a builder in tech means holding unprecedented power. Technologists have an ethical duty and social obligation to build with impact in mind. Impact on the individual user, on society, on the environment. Technology changes the world for better or worse. We must choose, day in and day out, to build technology that makes the world better.

Experience
