Summary
Founder-operator of a portfolio of small ventures spanning software platforms, live event production, and online retail. Everything runs on a private cloud I designed, built, and operate — with automation handling the routine 99% so the businesses scale without headcount. I work across the whole stack: product, code, infrastructure, and the operations discipline that keeps it all running.
