00About

I work across software, systems, security and automation. I like taking complicated problems apart, understanding how they work, and building something useful from the pieces.

04How I Think

I don't just use tools. I understand what they're doing.

Click a principle to pin it. These aren't rules — they're defaults I return to when the work gets ambiguous.

  1. 01

    Understand the system.

    Don't blindly use abstractions.

    01 / 05
  2. 02

    Automate the repetitive.

    If something is done repeatedly, it should probably become a system.

    02 / 05
  3. 03

    Build the smallest useful version.

    Complexity should earn its place.

    03 / 05
  4. 04

    Break things to understand them.

    Curiosity is part of engineering.

    04 / 05
  5. 05

    Keep learning.

    Technology changes. The ability to adapt matters more than memorizing a stack.

06Approach

Asimplewaytomove.

  1. 01

    Understand

    Understand the problem, constraints and desired outcome.

  2. 02

    Break Down

    Turn the problem into systems, components and priorities.

  3. 03

    Build

    Develop the smallest useful implementation.

  4. 04

    Refine

    Test, optimize, secure and improve.

  5. 05

    Ship

    Turn the finished system into something people can actually use.

Hard problems are the point. They're the only ones worth solving.
