A Blue State Digital founding partner, Jascha brings more than a decade's experience in software development in the corporate, nonprofit, and political spheres to his role as Blue State Digital's Chief Technology Officer. He manages the company's technology staff and operations out of Blue State Digital's technology center near downtown Boston, including the infrastructure, maintenance and enhancement of the Blue State Digital Online Tools, and technology client services.

Blue State Digital spearheaded Obama for America's extensive online fundraising, constituency building and peer-to-peer networking initiatives, all of which helped to create momentum for the President-elect's successful campaign in 2008's historic election. For the campaign, Jascha managed the team that built and ran the my.barackobama.com technology platform, and worked directly with Obama for America's New Media team in providing the tools and platform to engage supporters, donors and volunteers. In addition, he managed the server and systems infrastructure that powered the Obama web presence.

For Gov. Howard Dean's groundbreaking 2004 presidential campaign, Jascha led the technology team responsible for scaling, securing, and maintaining a high-visibility, high-traffic Web site, which received praise from both the political and tech communities for its usability, reliability, and depth of functionality.
