Currently building Dreamwork, an agent first job search platform.

Hey,

My name’s Colin.

I’m originally from Trenton, NJ, but one day I decided to ride the Northeast Corridor up to New York and work the marketing desk at American Express. That went well, so I was invited out to Silicon Valley where I joined the Apple Pay team for a five year adventure, growing that product to global scale alongside some of the world’s most creative and innovative minds.

Then the startup world called and I was off to build my own thing. I’m now in Atlanta working on Dreamwork, a job search platform built for our agentic future.
