Pinger CEO and leadership

I'm a product-focused startup founder who loves to lead small teams building products that people love. I've been lucky enough to drive product on several category-leading mobile apps like Sideline, Textfree, and Doodle Buddy. Back in the day, I also had significant contributing roles on ground-breaking devices like Treo and Palm Pilot. Of course, my career is littered (literally) with dozens of failed products and features. I've learned much more from the failures than the successes.
