04 / BEYOND THE JOB TITLE

A builder by trade.
And by nature.

I work on payment and switching systems at Stanchion, and build digital networking products as co-founder and head developer of VisionLink Technologies.

Outside that, I’m exploring AI development, scripting and smart home automation. Sometimes that means improving a workflow. Sometimes it means building an entire survival game.
