Personal site

Code, writing, and experiments with a bias toward clarity.

Builder on the open web

I make small, useful things and document what I learn along the way.

This site is a home for projects, notes, and the occasional opinion about software, systems, and making technology feel simpler than it really is.

A homepage should point somewhere, not try to do everything.

About

What I care about

Straightforward tools, legible systems, and software that earns its complexity instead of assuming it.

Work

Projects and experiments

A place for selected builds, public repositories, and the things that are worth turning into artifacts.

Writing

Notes worth keeping

Short essays and working notes on engineering tradeoffs, simple systems, and making tools easier to use.

Read the writing page

Quick snapshot

The homepage now acts as a guide instead of a dump.

Current mode

Shipping, writing, refining

Prototypes, notes, and personal tools tend to show up here before they become anything more official.
