To Live and Develop simply, focus on what really matters and master the unmasterable.
About me
Born in Idaho and shaped by an Air Force upbringing that instilled adaptability and curiosity, I now thrive in Ohio as a Tech Lead and web developer at a leading print company. I take pride in being an ever evolving Developer with over a decade in Prepress Workflow / Automation, API design, and systems Integrations. My career is driven by a passion for merging technology, creativity and simplicity.
Beyond the professional realm, I’m an offbeat author whose writings reflect my life journey and philosophical insights. My work focuses on simplifying life, eliminating distractions, and honing in on what truly matters. By blending hardcore tech skills with artistic expression and deep existential thoughts, I aim to inspire others to navigate life's complexities with clarity and purpose.
