About

I'm a builder. I love understanding how things work and making them better.

Across domains, I think in systems, learn by building, and aim to ship what I make.

What Drives Me

Optimism Discipline Systems Thinking Continuous Learning Building Useful Things

Origins

Building is a thread that runs through my life.

Hands-On from Day One

Space books, Star Wars, and a model robot car my dad helped me build in elementary school. That curiosity led to the garage: fixing cars, framing a shed, wiring houses as an electrician's apprentice. I became the go-to person when things broke.

Thinking in Systems

Physics, economics, philosophy, then a Master's in Physiology. A coding bootcamp pivoted me to software, then cloud engineering, and now AI. Different domains, same drive: understand the system and improve it.

AI Exploration

AI is reshaping how I build, learn, and solve problems.

Agentic Development

Claude Code is my daily driver. I use AI agents to write code, analyze logs, generate docs, and automate repetitive work. What used to take hours now takes minutes.

Building AI-Enabled Apps

AI makes previously impossible apps feasible. I'm building hyper-personalized tools: adaptive courses, iOS apps, and multi-agent workflows.

Learning with AI

AI shortens the path from curiosity to competence. I use it for deep dives, understanding complex topics, and connecting ideas across domains.

Frontiers

Where I'm investing my time.

Cloud & Platform Engineering

My foundation. I build enterprise cloud infrastructure -- multi-account AWS, Kubernetes, DevSecOps -- and lead teams delivering it. Expanding into GenAI services like Bedrock and SageMaker.

AWS Kubernetes DevSecOps

Robotics & Embodied AI

Childhood fascination, adult pursuit. I'm learning object detection, autonomous navigation, and motion planning to build robots that operate in the physical world.

Autonomous Systems Computer Vision Hardware

Entrepreneurship & Product

Building micro SaaS apps to learn the full business stack: product, positioning, marketing, and go-to-market. From concept to paying customers.

Blog

I write about AI-assisted development, what I'm building, and lessons learned along the way.

AFK

Technology work requires balance.

CrossFit, running, cycling, swimming, and yoga. Several half marathons and triathlons done, training for a full marathon. The gym, the road, and the mat keep everything sustainable.
