I’m a Digital Alchemist. For over 40 years, I’ve been turning chaos into systems—recording studios, codebases, workflows, and now AI. Finally left the corporate software world, and now I'm working for myself. Just launched a new YouTube channel.

Uploaded my 4th video to my new youtube channel called "How I Use AI to Say No At Work". It's about a custom GPT I created to help me answer emails diplomatically.

The Hour I Never Took Back - Sovereign Protocol Short Fiction
This is a work of flash fiction, but it's not an escape from the topics I usually cover here. It's a different lens on the same question: what happens when we optimize our way out of actually living? If you're here for essays and tutorials, they'll be back next week. But I think you'll recognize this guy.

I just launched my new YouTube channel with my first-ever video, discussing email and AI from the POV of a tech worker who has finally stopped confusing convenience with freedom.

If you check it out, I’d love to hear what landed (or didn’t) in the YouTube comments.
