About
On air, in C4D, or in the terminal — same guy.
Chief Technology Officer at Consumer Watchdog, where I built and run the entire platform alone — front end, back end, email, telecom, broadcast integration and donor systems.
The engineering came first — years in financial and government backend development, starting with a 196-line predictive dialer built for a merchant processor in 2007. Alongside it, thirty years of live television: over a thousand news conferences, concert production, commercial direction and documentary work on location.
The two halves are not separate careers. The same person keys the broadcast and writes the Java behind it, and that is exactly why a nonprofit can move faster than its headcount suggests.
