01 / The work
I care about the systems behind the outcome.
I’ve developed projects for businesses ranging from million-dollar companies to billion-dollar firms. My work spans AI phone systems, custom CRMs, e-commerce platforms, cloud infrastructure, and DevOps. Some projects solve everyday operational problems. Others start with a question I can’t leave alone.
I’ve built CRMs that, for the workflows they were designed around, I’d choose over Salesforce any day. I’ve also worked on trading systems, which taught me that building a bot and building one that consistently makes money are two very different achievements.
That project? I gave up on it.
The market kept its money, and I kept the lessons.
When you’re competing on execution speed, clever code is only part of the problem. Direct market access, servers colocated near exchange infrastructure, and low-latency connections become part of the competition. It left me deeply skeptical of anyone selling the idea of easy, reliable profits from a trading bot.
This blog is where I document all of it: the useful builds, the failed experiments, and the details I wish someone had explained before I started. You’ll find everything from Proxmox deployment automation and secure infrastructure to AI voice agents and whatever catches my attention next.
02 / A personal turning point
“Someday” stopped being a useful plan.
In July 2025, I was diagnosed with oral cancer. I’m doing well now and will remain under surveillance for five years.
That experience changed how I think about time. There are ideas I used to put off until “someday.” I want to build more of them now.
Some will be useful. Some will be strange. Some may fail spectacularly. I want to explore projects ambitious enough to surprise me, including ideas you might never have come across before.
I’ll share what happens here, honestly, including the parts that don’t make a polished success story.
03 / Why this exists
A public record of useful work and honest failures.
And yes, I built the CMS running this website. I got tired of WordPress, and apparently my answer to that was another project.
If you’re working on something interesting, have a question, or need help with a difficult technical problem, get in touch. There’s always another project in progress.
04 / About the domain
Personal significance. One firm price.
I regularly receive offers to buy this domain. It has personal significance to me, but I would consider selling it at a firm price of USD 200,000.
