Meet the team (me)

Founded by a human.

Sometimes, it feels like there aren't any.

Hi! I'm Kris 👋.

I’ve spent the last decade growing from engineer to (accidental) leader — learning a ton along the way. I get a lot of joy from helping people grow — whether it’s figuring out goals, navigating tough situations, or just making their career feel a little more like enjoyable.

This platform is my way of giving back. If something here helps you move forward, then it’s all been worth it.
