Builder. Maker. Problem Solver.
I build software, explore AI, cultivate gourmet mushrooms, create unusual projects, and share what I learn along the way.
Projects in progress. Most are ongoing builds, not one-offs.

After months of experimenting with AI agents and automation, here's what I've learned about making them reliable for real workflows.
Side-by-side comparison of two Lion's Mane grows using different spawn methods. Results and observations from a 45-day run.
What happened when my first battery enclosure design failed. Design changes that came from the mistake.
In-depth guides and long-form content.
After years on Linux, I ended up back on Windows. Here's why, and what I actually use.
Feb 2026Good prompts don't make good products. Context, workflow, and guardrails do.
Jan 2026Step-by-step setup for a single-shelf home grow environment for gourmet mushrooms.
Jan 2026Creating solves problems reading can't.
The best projects start with "what happens if..."
Document failures, not just wins.
Useful tools beat clever ideas.
Collaborations, inquiries, or just a conversation about building.
