About
Hi, I’m Jerry. Sometimes I write software, but mostly I just think about stuff. Sometimes I write my thoughts here.
I’m always open to conversations, about anything. No, seriously. I love learning about your point of view. Nobody’s taken me on this offer so far so if you’re reading this, try me. My gmail is personjerry@
Boring Stuff
Most recently I was Head of Growth at Dendron, a Y Combinator company building a note-taking app for developers.
I provide guidance to early-stage startups on high level strategy and product direction.
Previously I worked on machine learning at Facebook, fighting against harassment and child exploitation.
If you’re looking for my CV, please refer to my LinkedIn.
