Welcome to my little corner of the internet! By day, I’m a senior systems architect knee-deep in high-security government contracts, convincing stubborn databases to talk to obsolete hardware. My desk is buried under coffee mugs and schematic printouts, yet I still get a thrill when a brand-new compilation finishes without a single error.
When I'm not locked in a windowless room arguing about encryption protocols, I'm in my garage tinkering with vintage electronics. This includes a massive 1980s mainframe that occasionally dims the neighborhood lights. I’m also a sci-fi purist, a tabletop RPG dungeon master, and a proud collector of very loud mechanical keyboards.
This site is my digital sanctuary away from endless status meetings. Here, I write about the lighter side of engineering, share hardware hacking tips, and post retro computing retrospectives. Pull up a virtual chair and feel free to say hello if you share my obsession with obscure code!
