Our Members and Alumni

I’m a father of 6, astrophotographer, student pilot, gamer, podcast host, and founder and CEO of a software quality assurance agency, JDAQA. We help custom software development and SaaS companies with their manual, automated, performance, and security testing efforts. We have an incredible team that flexes up to 60 people across the US and in the Philippines. At this point my main role is sales, marketing, and business development.

Our company is part of the Lower Bucks Chamber of Commerce, Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce, PACT, and Philly Startup Leaders. I also speak somewhat regularly about becoming an entrepreneur at TechElevator, a programmer bootcamp in Philly and Wilmington, Delaware.

I don’t have an MBA, but absolutely love running a business. Besides my family, it’s what gets me out of bed in the morning. I have monthly standing meetings with a few of my trusted agency owner friends I call our “Get Rich or Die Trying” calls. We talk about what we’re doing well and what we can improve on which has been incredibly helpful and insightful.

I’ve got a Bachelor of computer science from Full Sail University and have worked across multiple industry verticals and roles. Some of those include QA engineering, product management, and senior executive of tech in the fintech space.
