I'm a site reliability + swarm systems maker and researcher who tells stories about code with robots and AI _

Today, I'm a Principal Engineer at Thoughtworks.

I've guided and worked with the people behind Alicorn Systems, Wayfair, Onshape, Micronaut, OpenDDS, the Air Mobility Command, and even world champion robotics teams.

When I'm not guiding my teams, I'm exploring: My research on robot swarms, tokenless blockchains, and capability-based microservices has been awarded fellowships, NSF funding, and even patents.

In my free time, I enjoy creating art and telling stories about what I learn from making things.
