Nick, Taylor, and Ruthie

Nick Catalano

For the past 15 years, I've been building things that last: teams, systems, and products. My work has taken me from scrappy startups and national campaigns to enterprise healthcare, usually dropping me right in the middle of a big, messy, high-stakes challenge. The common thread is that I like solving hard problems with good people and leaving behind tech that still works after the spotlight moves on.

My projects have reached millions of people—powering voter drives, modernizing healthcare, and shipping tools that keep fast-growing companies on track. I've led global engineering teams, launched major platforms, and helped nudge organizations toward the future with AI. My title has changed over the years, from engineer to CTO, but the job has always been the same: take ambitious ideas and make them real.

I'm based in New York City with my wife, Taylor, and our dog, Ruthie. When I'm not consulting for nonprofits and startups, you'll probably find me at a Broadway show, wandering the Met, or trying to snag a reservation at the newest restaurant that's impossible to get into.
