About

Hi everyone! I am one of the founders and CTO of Backdrop, an expense management platform built specifically for project-based work. As the CTO of Backdrop, I bring a unique blend of experiences, deeply rooted in the entertainment industry. Growing up in Los Angeles, surrounded by the hustle and bustle of film and TV, I developed a keen understanding of the industry's intricacies. From working as a Wardrobe PA to navigating theatrical distribution, I've witnessed firsthand the challenges faced by production crews. At Backdrop we aim to revolutionize production management, offering innovative solutions tailored to the needs of the film and entertainment community. Backdrop helps productions save >70% of time wasted on financial reporting and keep on budget.
