Hello! I'm Russ, a software engineer and entrepreneur based in Squamish, BC, Canada. I've been coding since I was eleven. These days I'm mostly interested distributed systems, event-driven applications, and machine learning.

Outside of work I like to ride bikes, go on hikes, and cross-country ski when there's snow on the ground.
