Founders

Currently building CodeStory. I have worked extensively in the devtooling and AI space for the last 5 years as the tech-lead for testing infrastructure at Meta and as the founding engineer for Findly.ai (YC S22). Passionate about making developers more productive and want to build for a world where developers have powerful AI agents working together to ship more value. I love making computers do things. 👾
