Working for a Wilder World
I use technology, creativity, and systems to encourage wilder ideas and places. I help shape ecosystems that surface new ideas, connect people, and support projects rooted in the physical world.

Personal Ventures
I take ideas from concept to code, design to launch.
Ideas Notebook
Ideas are a form of creativity for me. I see them everywhere and share them freely. Some I pursue, others I put out there in case someone else wants to.

Maine Outsider
A free newsletter curating upcoming outdoor experiences in Maine, designed to connect local organizations with people interested in getting outside.

Made by Adventure
Group trips created with local social enterprises and adventure guides to foster empathy, broaden perspective, and build meaningful connections through travel.

Advlo
A peer-to-peer platform for locals to create, market, and manage experiences. Enabled direct reservations with vetted hosts for unique, community-based travel.

Where Ideas Live
Walking, wondering, and paying attention as tools for discovery

Past Collaborators
Organizations, ventures, and teams I’ve helped innovate, operate, or grow.
Max is a human swiss army knife. He's no-bullshit, hardworking, great at communicating, and fun to work with. He understands how to take a creative vision and turn it into a reality, and make the entire process of getting there smooth, structured, and painless. He'll always go the extra mile to figure it out.

Max is one of - if not *the* - most talented, well-rounded, and curious people I’ve ever gotten the chance to work with. While his technical abilities are exceptional, what truly makes Max stand out are his remarkable soft skills. He is insatiably curious and patient beyond measure, approaching every challenge with a genuine desire to understand and improve.

Max has blown away my expectations every time I've interacted with him. In 2 days, he wrote a robust script to automate a task I had expected to take him months; he would stay late and come in early and was always taking it to another level. I would recommend Max hands down for any team, and would trust him to learn/ figure out any skill he may be missing.

There are very few people I have worked with who are as effective at being creative as Max. Not only does he create phenomenal products but he effortlessly oversees his ideas to implementation. The way he approaches problems and the questions he asks to ascertain root causes has provided immeasurable value to the Wishlist Product and overall business.
