01 About

I'm Jonathando — a generalist who likes to build, ship, and write. My work lives where engineering meets product, capital, and taste.

Over the last decade I've shipped web apps used by millions, invested in early-stage software companies, and quietly written essays on how the internet rewires the world.

These days I'm focused on AI-native tools, small bets that compound, and helping founders turn rough ideas into real products.
