I work in cloud, DevOps, and platform engineering. I also turn ideas into apps.
AI is changing how we build software. I'm leveraging these tools to rapidly prototype, expand into robotics, and optimize productivity workflows.
I'm a builder. I love understanding how things work and making them better.
What excites me most: We're at an inflection point. AI coding assistants, agentic workflows, rapid prototyping. These aren't just productivity boosters. They're changing what one person (or a small team) can accomplish.
Building is a thread that runs through my life.
In elementary school, I devoured every space book in the library. Star Wars hooked me on robots. My dad helped me build a model robot car with motors, lights, and a siren. I still have it.
I grew up in the garage with my dad: fixing cars, building a shed, wiring houses as an electrician's apprentice. I became the go-to person when things broke. Engineering and physics classes confirmed what I already knew: I love understanding systems.
College took me from hands-on to abstract: physics, economics, philosophy, then a Master's in Physiology where I taught graduate nursing students. A coding bootcamp pivoted me to software. From there, I grew into cloud engineering and AI. Different domains, same drive: understand the system, solve problems within it.
AI isn't just a tool I use. It's reshaping how I think about building, learning, and problem-solving.
Claude Code and GitHub Copilot are my daily drivers, and I pull in other tools as needed. I'm constantly comparing workflows and optimizing my agent config files, plugins, slash commands, and agentic patterns.
AI makes previously impossible apps feasible and fast to build. I'm exploring hyper-personalization: adaptive courses, visual calorie tracking, intelligent newsletters. Ideas that once took weeks now take days to prototype.
AI has become my learning accelerator. I use it to dive deep into unfamiliar fields, synthesize complex topics, and connect ideas across domains. Whether it's machine learning theory, business strategy, or robotics, AI shortens the path from curiosity to competence.
AI is transforming knowledge work: analyzing logs, generating documentation, creating diagrams. I use AI agents to summarize content, extract insights, and accomplish in minutes what used to take hours. I'm always looking for the next workflow to automate.
Where I'm investing my time.
This is my foundation. I lead small teams building enterprise cloud infrastructure with AWS, Kubernetes, IaC, DevSecOps, and observability at scale. I'm expanding into multi-cloud with Azure and GCP while growing into strategic leadership roles.
My childhood fascination with robots never went away. Now I'm acting on it. I want to build robots that operate in the physical world, so I'm learning object detection, autonomous navigation, and motion planning.
I'm building micro SaaS applications to learn the full business stack: product development, positioning, marketing, and go-to-market. I want hands-on experience taking ideas from concept to paying customers.
I write about AI-assisted development, what I'm building, and lessons learned along the way.
A year ago, I was burning API credits watching Claude loop endlessly on the same bug. By December, I was shipping features in days that would have taken weeks by hand.
Read moreMy wife wanted a calendar app where she could see her schedule as colors instead of text. I built it for her. It took four attempts, and each one taught me something different about building with AI.
Read moreI built a rabbit webcam in May 2025. It took a couple days. In January 2026, I rebuilt it in half a day. Same developer, same architecture. The difference was the workflow.
Read moreTechnology work requires balance. I stay active.
I balance desk work with CrossFit, running, cycling, and swimming. I've completed several half marathons and triathlons, and I'm working toward my first marathon. Yoga grounds it all: the reflective pause that keeps intense work sustainable.
Building great things requires energy and clarity. The gym, the road, and the mat are where I find both.
Whether you're exploring AI-assisted development, building something interesting, looking for a collaborator, or just want to talk about AI or robotics, I'd love to hear from you.
