I turn ambitious ideas into working systems.

I build products from first principles: mobile apps, AI decision tools, data platforms, automations, and local infrastructure that solve real problems.

Systems portfolio

I build across the whole stack.

The common thread is ownership: understanding the problem, designing the system, and making it work end to end.

Applied AI

Home systems analysis

AI-assisted lawn care, solar, and HVAC analysis designed to turn messy household conditions into practical recommendations.

Computer visionDecision support

Quantitative systems

Automated trading research

A research and execution stack that paper trades through Alpaca and has been tested for live execution through the Schwab API.

PythonBacktestingBroker APIs

Private infrastructure

Self-hosted home cloud

Jellyfin media, camera-based motion security, and a customized Actual Budget deployment—using existing hardware and keeping data local.

Product customization

Actual Budget updater

A locally hosted Actual server with a custom client-side update control, turning a maintenance task into a safe one-click workflow.

Family experiment

Cobblemon for Bedrock

A full port of the Java-only Cobblemon experience to Minecraft Bedrock for a private family server—part reverse engineering, part game design.

How I work

Strategy that survives contact with reality.

01

Find the actual constraint

I translate broad ambitions into a problem that can be measured, designed, and shipped.

02

Build the smallest real system

I prefer working software, live data, and real users over decks that postpone the hard questions.

03

Instrument and improve

I add feedback loops, analytics, reliability, and operational tooling so the product can mature.

04

Make complexity usable

The final interface should feel simple even when the architecture behind it is not.

About

Technical enough to build it. Strategic enough to know why.

I’m a data and technology leader with more than fifteen years of experience turning complex operations into systems people can understand and use. My work spans enterprise analytics, product development, applied AI, and technical leadership.

The projects here are how I think: curious, hands-on, and unwilling to stop at a prototype. Whether I’m launching a company or improving something in my own home, I care about the complete loop from idea to reliable outcome.
