ABOUT

About Tony

I've managed $30M in assets, shipped the fastest-selling title in Blizzard history, and advised Saudi generals on the 2030 Vision — all as a U.S. Army Major with an active TS/SCI clearance. West Point taught me systems thinking. The Army taught me to build under pressure. Blizzard taught me to ship at scale. Now I bring all three to every program I touch.

I bring the discipline of military leadership, the precision of systems engineering, and the speed of modern product development together. I’ve led transformations at the highest levels — from advising Saudi generals on Vision 2030 to shipping Diablo IV as Blizzard’s fastest-selling title.
