About

Hi, I'm Josh. Welcome to my humble internet abode 🏡.

I grew up in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. My parents ran a small, family candy business where I helped with their early ecommerce website—my first foray into entrepreneurship and “programming.”

I studied Computer Engineering at Penn State University. During summers, I caddied at Oakmont Country Club and attended Penn State through the Evans Caddie Scholarship.

I'm based in Brooklyn, New York with my wife and our dog, Bode. After a wonderful decade in San Francisco, we are back on the East Coast and enjoying all four seasons again.

I’ve built and scaled products and teams from inception through exit. Most recently, I spent time at Stripe scaling global money movement infrastructure, and before that, founded a company through South Park Commons.

I'm currently spending my days at Plaid. I support engineering teams building a modern credit system that expands access to financial opportunity.

In my free time, I spend time cycling, collecting vinyl, fermenting food, and reading. Meditation has been a big part of my life and an ongoing journey.

I love meeting engineers, founders, and thoughtful, passionate people. Shoot me an email if you would like to connect.
