About Me

My journey from engineering and architecture to family life and weekend tinkering.

Family & Life

Beyond the code and systems architecture, my life revolves around my family. I am a proud husband to my wife, Crystal, and father to two wonderful children: my son, Alo, and my daughter, Azalea. Our household is made complete (and a bit more chaotic) by our fluffy Samoyed, Xena. We cherish our time together, whether it's relaxing at home or exploring the outdoors.

Career Journey

A continuous evolution from deep technical execution to high-level strategy and leadership.
