About

Solo founder, enterprise IT pro,
Tarheel born. Tarheel bred.

By day I'm a Cyber / Disaster Recovery engineer at The Hartford — 10+ years hardening enterprise Windows environments through endpoint management, patch automation, SIEM, and DR across tens of thousands of systems. By night I run a solo portfolio of products out of Charlotte: sports analytics, an AI SaaS for salons, a doorstep-trash marketplace, a disaster-recovery platform, and a half-dozen more. I hire agents, not headcount.

Security-first

CompTIA Security+ & CySA+. I ship products that won't embarrass you in a pen test.

Ship, don't stall

14+ active projects. I pick tech that lets me move — TypeScript, Expo, Supabase, Claude.

Agent-augmented

I run Claude Code, MCP servers, and custom agent stacks across my portfolio. The team is code.

Capabilities

The stack I ship on.

I stay narrow by choice — deep expertise in a small stack beats shallow everywhere. If it's on this list, I've shipped production with it.
