About Josh Knowles

I don\'t check or update LinkedIn very often, so if you\'d like to get in contact please j•••@frescher.com. Thank you.I love to build amazing things with software and I\'ve been fortunate enough to have an extremely wide range of experiences. My favorite thing is working with smart teams to launch cool and clever products that truly help people, whether they\'re looking to improve their health, find a great place to eat, watch a movie, make better decisions, just have some fun with a game — or anything in between.
