Driving values

A true gentleman of the modern technoanalytical era, I strive to create tools that foster understanding—of systems, of people, and of the natural world around us. My work is rooted in curiosity and shaped by a lifelong relationship with hands-on effort. I’ve spent years doing the work myself, which grounds me in the practical, but I’m always looking for better outcomes—ways to improve processes, simplify the complex, and make things work more intelligently.

I’m drawn to projects that live at the intersection of utility and imagination. I build things that feel intuitive and human—whether it’s a device that gives a voice to plants or a model that reveals meaningful insights from overlooked data. My goal is to create thoughtful, accessible tools that make life smoother and more informed, often in subtle ways.

I bring a systems-oriented mindset to everything I do, shaped by a background in management science and analytics. I naturally think in terms of incentives, constraints, and long-term outcomes. That economic lens influences how I design, prioritize, and solve: not just by asking can this be done, but should it, who benefits, and what’s the simplest way it works well, again and again.

I work across disciplines because I see how they connect. I’m just as comfortable wiring up hardware as I am modeling a data process or structuring a decision framework. I care as much about how something feels to use as how it functions under the hood.

I don’t chase trends or novelty for their own sake. I build deliberately, with an eye toward clarity, longevity, and usefulness. My work is shaped by experience, motivated by curiosity, and grounded in the belief that small, thoughtful systems can lead to lasting change—and a deeper understanding of the world we live in.
