Co-Founder

Stephen Sigwart, Rich Friedman and I founded this company based on technology we spun out of RunSignUp. We are using an innovative business approach based on free services, Cloud deployments and Curated Source Licenses to provide (almost) free load testing and various API services like our ZipCode API.

Advisor/Board

2010 - 2022

Principal

2002 - 2018

I was an advisor for several startup companies after leaving Bluestone/HP. We started up RunSignUp as part of Bickel Advisory Services, LLC, but converted to an S Corp named RunSignUp, Inc. I only had one advisory position left with CloudBees, so really no need for this LLC anymore as I no longer take on advisory roles. https://runsignup.wordpress.com/2018/01/09/runsignup-converts-to-an-s-corporation/
