YC Founder, Dad, Engineering Leader

Hey, I'm Evan. I've been in the trenches of startups and tech for years, from founding my own companies to leading engineering teams at places like Apartment List. I'm all about building cool stuff that works great and scales well. Whether it's hacking together a prototype or overhauling entire systems, I love diving into complex problems.

Work with Me

Hello there, I'm Evan! I'm looking to work with a growing startup tackling whatever engineering problem you have. I've worked with a bunch of different tech stacks and have many different open source projects as well.

Detroit Marathon 2017

I signed up for the Detroit Marathon 2017 with the idea of qualifying for the Boston Marathon (I know that's almost every marathon runner's goal). I have to say, the Detroit Marathon is truly one of a kind. There are quite a few experiences that I don’t think I would have experienced anywhere else.

Introducing Namer

I read an article recently about launching a bunch of mini-apps to grow some traction. I'm not sure that these things will grow traction for me. I more wanted an excuse to work on small apps that I thought were cool. I am building everything under the OpenPace branding and website so they are all open source.

If you are reading this, you have likely seen my website (or maybe not). But, on the front page of the site is a chatbot. I know what you are thinking; chatbots are so 2017. Well, that is when I started working on it so I am still going to share it with you all.
