About Verrazzi

The Heart (and Height) Behind Verrazzi

We’ve been a team for 26 years—married for 22—and we’ve seen it all. From the grind of the help desk and healthcare data to surviving health scares and building a life in the Florida sun, we’ve learned one thing: resilience is the only shortcut.

The Architect

6’6” of Pure Tech

With 24 years in the IT trenches—from Desktop Support to Senior Cloud Engineer at Amazon—he’s the technical engine of Verrazzi.

He’s a "strictly business" introvert who knows an insane amount about AI, LLMs, and systems architecture.

When he’s not building apps, he’s a "guy's guy" who loves mean-sounding fast cars, PC gaming, and the quiet of the mountains.

He’s the protector, and the genius who makes the "impossible" parts of our apps actually work.

The Analyst

5’4” of Italian Energy

She’s the "warm and friendly" side of the operation.

Born in New York but made for the 100-degree Florida sun, she spent 20 years in healthcare operations, the last 13 as a "data nerd" specializing in SQL and Business Intelligence.

She’s the life coach, the football fanatic, and the one who ensures our products aren't just technical—they’re human.

She’s the one who gets back up, brushes off the dust, and keeps the humor alive when life gets serious.

Why we do this

No boardroom. No theater. Just real people building useful things.

We don’t have a fancy corporate boardroom. We have a home office in Florida, a shared love for traveling (and chocolate), and a 14-year-old dog named Cooper who is the center of our world.

We’ve worked for everything we have. We’ve been kicked, we’ve fallen, and we’ve gotten back up every single time. We started Verrazzi to build digital tools that reflect that same grit—products that are technically elite but built for real people with real goals.
