Projects

Seven extensions in one week turned a tidy static portfolio into something with a voice — a site that answers questions in my own words, shows its depth honestly, and draws twenty years of work as a transit map.

A privacy tool that reads the legal documents people are asked to accept and renders plain-language summaries — built against a calibration corpus that turned a fuzzy problem into a regression-testable engine.

Three independent infrastructure failures surfaced in a single evening. Each got traced to its root cause and paired with a permanent observability layer, so the same class of failure can never go silent again.

A single YAML file became the canonical inventory of every homelab service, host, and dependency — and a new graph view caught a real 46-hour outage within hours of going live.

A companion blog to this portfolio — same paper-and-grain visual DNA, given a distinct identity through a light-mode terminal aesthetic and a teal accent.

A suite of interconnected web apps powering volunteer operations for one of the largest amateur radio conventions in the country.

A working practice for using AI coding agents from the terminal — multi-tool evaluation, repo-local instruction systems, persistent memory, and MCP server integration applied across daily engineering and consulting work.

Custom n8n nodes that turn a VoIP phone system's call control API into a building block for visual workflow automation, deployed on a single droplet with a split public-and-private access model.

A growing collection of Model Context Protocol servers that bridge AI assistants to the day-to-day operational tools an IT service business runs on.
