About
From cinema rigs to AI systems — the same instinct to build, applied across two decades of solving complex problems.
My career spans 25+ years across media, technology, and entrepreneurship. What started behind the camera — designing custom aerial cinema systems and flying drones on international film sets — has evolved into building AI-powered automation systems and web applications.
The through-line is the same: take a complex problem, design a system to solve it, and build it.

Started building for the web during the dot-com era — full-stack development, interface design, and user experience across digital agencies and freelance clients. A decade of shipping production code and designing for real users, long before the tools made it easy.
