About

I'm a technology leader focused on building strong platforms, capable teams, and the practices that help technology thrive at scale. My background spans platform strategy, web technologies, architecture, and the operational foundations that turn ambitious ideas into reliable, sustainable systems.

What I care about: operational clarity, maintainable architecture, scalable platforms, thoughtful governance, and treating people who run systems as first-class users of those systems. Good UX is operational efficiency.

What I'm frustrated by: unnecessary complexity, bloated processes, unclear ownership, and innovation theater that produces slide decks instead of working software.

Outside of work I collect records and CDs, take photographs, and try to maintain a living website for more than 6 months.
