I'm looking for work.
If you're building something ambitious and want fewer problems in your life, let's talk.

I don’t just fix problems, I make them disappear. I solve them so thoroughly the team forgets they ever existed.
Over my 18-year career I’ve built distributed systems that handle billions of events, ML models that identify churners, and custom game engines scaling to thousands of concurrent players.
I love working across disciplines, solving problems before teams even know they have them, and building technology that empowers, unlocks, and multiplies an organization's potential.
| Project | Description | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Wesley | Instant backend–Just add schema! Use GraphQL to generate Postgres, TypeScript, Zod, Supabase. Never think about migrations again and stop describing the same shapes half a dozen times.       |
MVP In-Progress |
| GitScrolls | A 16-part mythic epic teaching Git through one developer’s tragic force-push. |
Story Edit In-Progress |
| Shiplog | Immutable, conflict-free deployment logs, versioned in Git, where they belong.  |
MVP In-Progress |
| Git Mind | Git as a database-less graph database. A semantic knowledge graph for distributed cognition, and human–AI co-thought.  |
Early |
| T.A.S.K.S. and S.L.A.P.S | Next-gen AI execution at graph scale. T.A.S.K.S. decomposes complex plans into mathematically optimized anti-chain graphs. S.L.A.P.S. is a resilient runtime where autonomous agents swarm the graph via a rolling frontier. Together they reduce time-to-completion by orders of magnitude; months into hours.  |
MVP |
| Hubless | Git-native project flow. Issues, Kanban, execution—all in your repo. Freedom from vendor lock-in. It's your project, take it with you.  |
Early |
| Universal Charter | Ethics for tomorrow. Principles for coexistence between biological, artificial, and hybrid intelligences. |
v1.0.0 |
| MIND-UCAL Software License | The MIND-UCAL License is an ethical software license that forbids harmful uses like military weapons and surveillance while allowing for personal, commercial, and ethical AI applications. No weapons. No killer robots. No evil AI. |

- Currently: Building tools that delete entire categories of developer pain.
- Previously: Staff Engineer in gaming and platform engineering for 18 years, building systems that served millions.
- Philosophy: The ultimate solution is the one that makes the problem cease to exist entirely.
