Always a student. Always building.
Co-host of The Agentic Review
01 / In practice
Code. Research. Engineering judgment.The work
behind the
point of view.
I build and examine the systems around AI-assisted engineering: the context, controls, and evidence that help us decide what to trust.
How I Design

On the mic / Co-host
The Agentic Review.
I co-host conversations with engineers and technology leaders about code quality, developer trust, and building with AI.
Listen to The Agentic Review02 / Out in the world
Good questions travel.Technology moves
forward together.
In the code, in the room, and in conversation. I connect what developers are learning with what organizations need to understand.

Work together03 / A little backstory
Curiosity has always been the thread.From a tanning salon in Houston to building global AI communities.
I started learning to code between customer-service duties at a tanning salon. Tutorials turned into websites, then a move to Boston and a place in Resilient Coders.
That path led to fintech, four years of software engineering at O’Reilly Media, and a career connecting developers with the tools and knowledge they need.
Community helped me find my way into engineering. It’s why access, learning, and sharing what I know are still at the center of my work.
