I grew up in The Woodlands, Texas, a suburb just north of Houston. In 2007, I made my way out to California to go to Stanford University where I majored in Management Science and Engineering and played football for the Stanford Team. After graduation I coached a high school football team for a few years and decided to join Cisco Systems. I joined the Cisco Spark team in May of 2014 and have loved being a part of taking this new product to market.
