Taking Back The Groove movie!!

i was an executive producer and music composer on a short film documentary about Richie Weeks, a disco star who was exploited by the record industry. sadly this a common story, particularly for people of color. it’s currently doing the film festival circuit. we won 1st prize at rhode island film fest, and my parents loved it.

it was incredibly rewarding telling this story and working in this medium.

The film is available on YouTube, distributed by Resident Advisor. You can watch it here:

i ran a festival onesie clothing line, called Peculiar Colors. it’s currently in hibernation, since it’s too much work, but it was a fun project.

The shop is still online at peculiarcolors.com

engineer

i’m a software engineer and now a startup founder (slapback.io). i have a bachelor’s degree in computer science. i worked at facebook from 2010-2015 mostly as an iOS engineer building early versions of the messenger and fb app. those were some good times, and i’ll probably never again be able to say a billion people saw my work.

before that, i was engineer hire #4 at mint.com, a personal finance startup that was acquired by intuit. also some really fun times

before that, i was an IT consultant doing god awful corporate work.
