I’ve spent much of my career working with technology at scale. Outside of work, that same curiosity keeps me exploring new tools, learning how things work, and turning ideas into useful projects.
Technology keeps moving forward. I’m interested in understanding where it is going, and what we choose to build with it.
I like projects that start with a real problem. The Orlando planner began as a way to organize one family trip and became a chance to learn how a modern web application actually works.
What started as a simple trip planner grew into an interactive family application with itinerary planning, ride preferences, dining, transportation, packing, photos, trivia, family sharing, authentication, mapping, a database, and secure administrative tools.
Open private plannerA tribute to the pocket computer that started it all.
My interest in computing started in high school with a Casio PB-100 pocket computer.
It was small, simple, and programmable in BASIC, but it completely changed the way I thought about technology.
While studying physics, I figured out how to write a small program that could work through the formulas I was learning. Seeing something I had programmed solve a real problem for me was astonishing.
That was the moment I understood the power of computers. They could take an idea, turn it into instructions, and then do something useful with it.
That experience sparked a curiosity that has stayed with me ever since.
I did not get into photography because I thought of myself as an artist. What caught my attention was the technology. Digital SLR cameras were becoming more capable, and I wanted to understand how they worked.
I started learning about lenses, exposure, shutter speed, aperture, sensors, and all the technical pieces behind making an image. Then something unexpected happened.
The more time I spent looking through the viewfinder, the more I started noticing things I had never paid much attention to before. Light. Shapes. Reflections. Details. The way a scene could change depending on where I stood or what I chose to include.
Photography started as another technology I wanted to understand. It ended up changing the way I looked at the world.
I’m interested in how AI can shorten the distance between an idea and something that actually works.
I build personal applications while learning more about modern development, databases, security, APIs, and cloud platforms.
I enjoy turning digital ideas into physical objects, from modifying and designing models to refining how they print and work in the real world.
Computers, networking, audio, connected devices, and the ongoing process of making technology work better in everyday life.
That question is behind many of the things I build. I like understanding what technology can do, but I am just as interested in where it takes us and whether what we build is actually useful. I research, experiment, make mistakes, learn how the pieces work, and keep refining an idea until it becomes something worth keeping.
My professional background is in enterprise technology and operations, working with systems that need to perform reliably in real environments.
That experience shaped how I approach problems. I like understanding how the pieces fit together, simplifying what can be simplified, and finding practical ways to make things work better.
Technology for me does not stop at work. I am always exploring something new. Sometimes that means building an application. Sometimes it means modeling and printing something in 3D. Other times it simply means researching a problem until I understand it well enough to try a better solution.
This site is where I keep some of those ideas and projects.
This site will grow as new ideas turn into projects. Some will become full applications. Others will stay small experiments or useful tools. Sometimes I will build something simply because I want to know if I can make it work.
