The story

I've stood where you stand.

I spent 8 seasons as superintendent at Stow Acres: crews, budgets, irrigation, equipment, and a lot of data. Technology was always how I kept up.

In 2016 that turned into a company. I founded Turf Cloud to help superintendents manage their data, and GreenSight acquired it in 2018.

Today I'm VP of Sales & Marketing at GreenSight, putting Kress robotic mowers to work on real courses. I still think like a super: what does this do for my crew, my budget and my turf?

What I do
