Hi, I'm Jesse.

I'm currently working as a software engineer for Paramount under CBS Sports. I was born and raised in Dallas, TX and now live in New York City.
For undergrad, I studied information systems (MIS) at the McCombs School of Business. After graduating, I attended an engineering bootcamp, Codesmith, to learn how to code full-stack.
I am (clearly) not a "classically-trained" CS degree holder but rather a scrappy business-first engineer fully embracing AI tools such as Cursor and the latest LLMs. I have product management experience, design sense, a willingness to talk to customers, and an entrepreneurial spirit.
I made this site to document my career and learnings.
Outside of work, I enjoy international travel (42 countries so far), studying financial markets and Bitcoin, occasionally skydiving, and trying new coffee shops.
Feel free to connect with me via LinkedIn or send me an email.
