Software engineer.
Full-time builder.
Curious human.
I make things, read a lot, travel slower than I should, and write it all down before it's gone. This site is the running log.
I don't build software to call myself an engineer. I build because I can't help it — and I write it down so future-me remembers why.
Not a blog. A running log.
Why Most AI Apps Fail After the Demo
The real challenges start after the demo. Here's what I've learned while building AI products that users actually rely on.

Most of what ships starts at a desk that looks like this — messy, caffeinated, mid-thought.

Not chasing a title. Chasing a decade of good chapters.
I started writing code because I wanted to make things that didn't exist yet — shipping enterprise systems at Brain Station 23, then building my own products as a software engineer. Somewhere along the way I read a few hundred books and started treating travel as research instead of escape.
Ten years from now I might be a founder, an author, or something that doesn't have a name yet. This site is where I keep the receipts.
Coffee first. Code second.
