Hi, I’m Brody.

LiveForward Deployed Engineer · Ravenna

Forward Deployed Engineer at Ravenna. Previously embedded on Zapier’s MCP team from its infancy, introducing it to AI partners like OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and Meta.

Off the clock it’s home-server tinkering, Letterboxd logging, and chasing down a good cocktail recipe.
