Black Burch grew up in Fort Worth, attending college at TCU. Prior to his current venture, he wasn't actually a tech person. He wanted to be a music professor, specifically in percussion. But eventually, he moved over to the tech world. But, outside of tech, he plays board games, in the strategy realm, and named one that I hadn't heard of called Terra Mystica.Previously at PMG, Blake and his company had built an internal tool called forklift, moving data between data warehouses. As it started to grow, he and his co-founder saw lots of opportunities to expand the offering - and make it a product of its own.This is the creation story of Shipyard.SponsorsDrataCacheFlyClearQueryLinkshttps://www.shipyardapp.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/blakeburch/Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/code-story/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
