This portfolio is structured as API documentation — because if I’m going to say I think in systems, I should probably show it.

75,000+ developers across 6 continents have used something I wrote to get unstuck. I’ve mass-configured 150 flash drives overnight for a robotics workshop. Explained HMAC authentication to a room that thought I said “hammock.” Built documentation systems that outlived two reorgs. Judged many a zany hackathon project. I’m a Developer Experience Engineer with 5+ years in DevRel — at NCR, Dropbox, Stellar Development Foundation, and Mastercard. Currently freelancing, consulting on AI evaluation rubrics, and building tools that help people see complexity.

​
Why a docs site?

I wanted a portfolio that works the way I work: structured, searchable, and slightly overengineered for the joy of it. Also, I thought it would be funny. It was. For about 40 hours of Next.js debugging.
Start with /quickstart for the fast path, or browse the Changelog to see the full version history.
