I’m the founder of four companies including Smart Bear and currently WPEngine.I took Smart Bear from start to multiple millions in profit, without debt or VC, then sold it for cash.
I’m also a mentor at Capital Factory (like TechStars or Y-Combinator in Austin) and investor in a few companies.
I’m the author of Best Kept Secrets of Peer Code Review, the most popular book (50,000 copies) on modern, lightweight methods for doing peer code review effectively without everyone hating life. I’m also the co-host of OnStartups Answers along with Dharmesh Shah.
I live in Austin, Texas with my wonderful wife, a chef and entrepreneur who blogs about cooking healthy at home, and my precious baby daughter Abigail.
