Experience
A timeline of the roles where I worked on contracts, claims, closeout, and now Pylonary.
Founder
Pylonary · D.C. Metro Area
Building Pylonary, based on the document and admin problems I kept running into on construction jobs.
- Started the software build in March 2024 and formed Pylonary as an LLC in January 2026.
