Hi again, I'm Gil.
I'm a developer based in Boston, Massachusetts and I have a passion for creating software that makes an impact on people's lives. I'm currently at Pear Therapeutics, where I'm involved in building the world's first FDA-approved prescription digital therapeutic designed to help patients fight substance-use disorder.
Before jumping into the world of software, I had an exciting decade-long career in architecture. Over that time, I designed and constructed over 40 residential and commercial properties. I love the craft of designing spaces for people. There are very few things more satisfying than walking through an environment that at one point, only existed in your mind.
Those years spent as an architect honed my attention to detail and ability to focus on the user. These skills have proven to be invaluable as I began my new career as a software engineer in 2019. Thankfully, I still get to flex my architectural skills from time-to-time with my own real estate projects, like this Airbnb in Boston.
Outside of software, I love everything to do with food. I enjoy exploring new restaurants, cooking new dishes, and talking about my next meal. I also think a lot about adventures on my road bike, cheap flights to foreign countries and why Roman Mars' voice is so soothing.
I love connecting with new people, so if you want to chat, feel free to reach out to me here.
