Building systems that make technology work for people.

From hands-on computer repair to AI agent security, Bitcoin infrastructure, cryptocurrency tools, and decentralized financial systems, I have spent more than 40 years understanding how systems work, why they fail, and how to build better ones.

My Story

From the workbench to the bigger picture.

The thread through my career has always been the same: understand the real problem, find the weak point, and make the system work better.

1984
Started with computers and electronics

Working around machines, hardware, and practical problem-solving from an early age.

Later
Built a hands-on technology career

Computer repair, networking, troubleshooting, data recovery, and real-world client systems.

Today
Building larger connected systems

Financial infrastructure, AI agents, decentralized tools, and human-centered technology.

I started working with computers and electronics in my father’s CNC machine shop. I wanted to understand how machines worked, why they stopped working, and how to fix them. That curiosity became a career in electronics, computer service, networking, and data recovery.

Over the years, I learned that the same principles apply far beyond computers. Every system has bottlenecks, hidden dependencies, and failure points. Today, I am applying that experience to financial technology, blockchain infrastructure, AI agents, and new ways for people to control and move their money.

“I have spent my life fixing systems. Now I am building better ones.”
Current Projects

Building practical tools for the next generation of technology.

These projects explore how traditional finance, decentralized systems, and AI can work together without forcing people into closed platforms.
