Hello!

I am a software solutions architect based in the Triangle area of North Carolina. I help organizations provide software experiences that delight users, drive revenue, and deliver meaningful value.

Today I am doing this with one of the largest privately held companies in the United States, and my work includes:

• RAG, rerank, and other generative AI applications, on prem and in the cloud
• react-native mobile applications, including native components
• web, API and microservices design

Lots of other experience covered by the phrase "full stack", which is still ambiguously defined, but serves to mostly cover what isn't listed.

What You Will Find Here?

Everything from small things I discover in my day-to-day to goofy projects to help explore software architecture and development patterns, practices and tools, things worth remembering (at least, the way I see it!)

One of the best parts of tech is we are presented with opportunities to learn something new. If you are really fortunate, this happens almost daily.

This platform lets me share what I learn with others. Sharing is an opportunity to gain new insights and perspectives from others, which renews the learning cycle again. It's an awesome feedback loop. Thank you for being a part of it, and I hope you return to learn or contribute something new.

I am also:

• an obstacle course racer (my favorite - AROO! AROO! AROO!)
• always looking for a reason to roll a D20
• inspired and motivated by discovery, innovation, and exploration, alone and with others
• a believer in democratizing learning through mentorship, knowledge sharing, and information accessibility
• a film, book and music buff who is frequently spied nodding my head to the beat
