Published Skills
Skill Distillery
Turns raw material (articles, talks, ideas) into strategic, interactive agent skills. Bottom-up synthesis, not content reformatting.
Design Motion Principles
Motion design auditor trained on Emil Kowalski, Jakub Krehel, and Jhey Tompkins. Context-aware, per-designer feedback on your animations.
Responsive Craft
Front-loads responsive design decisions so you're deliberate about breakpoints instead of reactive. Surfaces design forks where there's no single right answer.
Soleio's Design Talent Playbook
Strategic sourcing for hiring great designers or getting hired as one. Interactive advisor, not a framework to read.
Software as a Gift
I believe code is a love language. The most meaningful software I've built was for my wife, my son, my friends.
An app that reminds my wife how loved she is. A Jeopardy practice app for a friend trying to get on the show. My late mother's cloned voice reading stories to my son. A pick'em app for a decade-old NFL tradition. Building software for the people you care about is the fastest way to learn, the most fulfilling way to ship, and proof that this technology can be genuinely good.

Experience
Appearances & Teaching
The Arc
Former touring musician. Product designer for a decade. Started building with AI in late 2024 and haven't stopped shipping since. I make software for the people I care about and teach others how to do the same.
