Hi – my name is Joe Damato.

I graduated as a computer science and cognitive science double major in 2007 from CMU. During college I worked on a variety of startups with close friends and I participated in Y-Combinator during the summer of 2007.

Afterwards, I began working as a Member of Technical Staff at VMWare’s Boston office in the Driver Infrastructure Group (at heart I am an OS guy). I worked with a lot of really smart engineers and I learned enormous amounts about operating systems, device drivers, and of course, virtualization.

I recently left VMWare after working there for little over a year and I am currently living in the Bay Area working on startup stuff yet again.

I am always interested in meeting new people who are working on cool stuff or who just want to chat about tech stuff.
