Gamer. Builder. Unifier.
I build things that make people curious.
Then I help them build things of their own.




A gamer’s curiosity.
A builder’s instinct.
A unifier’s belief in people.
I’m a builder and educator in the Washington, DC area. My work lives at the intersection of AI, developer education, and community.
Sometimes that’s an agent that finds your next night out. Sometimes it’s a hands-on workshop or language models battling in a video game. The through line is helping people see what’s possible, then giving them a place to start.
Keep learning. Make something. Bring people along.
