About Sean Costello

I am an engineer, operator, and techno-optimist. I love to build things… really, anything… products, relationships, companies. Simple things, complex things, tangible things like furniture and really large wet wipes, or digital things like workflow automations and intelligent systems leveraging AI. Are you building something? I\'d love to hear about it.
