I never really stopped building.

  1. HTML
  2. DREAMWEAVER
  3. WORDPRESS
  4. SEARCH
  5. COMMERCE
  6. PRODUCT
  7. ENTERPRISE
  8. AI
  9. AGENTS
  10. ?

The tools changed. The curiosity didn't.

Rebuild it.

Before I knew what product strategy was, I was already doing the thing I still love most: taking an idea, figuring out how it works, and putting it on the internet.

03 / Scale

The problems kept getting bigger.

  1. 01Websites taught me how to build.
  2. 02Search taught me how machines interpret information.
  3. 03Local taught me how digital information changes physical decisions.
  4. 04Enterprise taught me scale.
  5. 05Customer experience taught me that discovery is only the beginning.
  6. 06AI is pulling those disciplines back together.

Then the distance between what if? and it works collapsed.

The current stops being a line here. Every build is a story with a trigger, an idea, a build and something learned.

05 / Human

Built in San Diego.

Technology takes up a ridiculous amount of my brain. Family takes up the rest.

San Diego is home. Building is what I do. Curiosity has mostly been the career plan.

06 / Purpose

What if the best thing I build isn't for a company?

I'm increasingly interested in the opposite question: how can technology help people better understand, experience and interact with the world around them?

That's the current I'm most interested in following.

Have something worth building?

Bring me the problem before the platform.

I work best where product, search, customer experience and AI overlap, especially when the answer is not obvious yet.
