Financial systems by day. Agentic tooling always.

builder·explorer·nerd

By day I work on financial software — systems where correctness isn't optional. Outside that work, I take products from the first design through implementation and release.

I built Career Compass solo, covering product, brand, design, and engineering. It combines an adaptive interview with live job postings to help people find careers their résumé alone might miss. I also built doc-lifecycle, an open-source Claude Code plugin for keeping documentation aligned with code, now paused while I fix its context costs.

On Agentic Atlas, I've worked on making a site usable by agents as well as people: explicit API contracts, discoverable documentation, and paths tested with real clients. I wrote up the decisions and results in the build notes.

I like problems where the interesting part is judgment, not plumbing — and I'd rather ship a small real thing than a large imagined one. The blog is where I share experiments in agent orchestration and what I learn from shipping.
