Creative • Solutions Architect • Wizard • Coach
Twenty years shipping mission-critical systems — now aimed at the only thing that matters. I wear four hats: the architect who builds what people depend on, the wizard who sees the story, the creative who puts it on screen, and the coach who walks the path. One purpose underneath all of it.
Technology for remembering
The Through-Line
“You chose this life before you arrived.”
Media, attention, and story got captured by the machine. My work — whether it's an AI product, a cinematic brand, or a coaching engine — takes them back and hands them to people. Different mediums, one mission: technology that enhances your humanness, never replaces it. A human in the loop, always.
How I Work
“I turn multi-week workflows into one click.”
The mission-critical lineage. For a decade I architected national GIS infrastructure for the U.S. Forest Service, then built and ran a statewide municipal-GIS practice from zero. I ship systems people actually depend on — now pointed at the AI frontier.
Production AI tools and agentic systems — Claude-based reading engines, RAG, vector databases, prompt caching, per-user memory, and tool pipelines that retrieve intelligently instead of dumping context.
The signature move: take a manual, multi-week process and make it a one-click run. Python automation of deployment, reporting, and data pipelines.
Enterprise ArcGIS administration, platform migrations, and Public Participatory GIS — the deepest, most credentialed part of the record.
Discovery → custom demo → close for government and enterprise buyers. Translating complex technology into value for the C-suite and the engineers who build on it.
“A wizard doesn't get hired — a wizard gets kept.”
The invisible counsel behind the founder. Every leader is the king or queen of their own story; I'm the one who sees the whole web and makes them a legend. Strategy, brand alchemy, and the AI studio behind it all.
Find the human inside the company and make the brand a character people can't stop watching. The Personal Brand Playbook: identity, story, archetype, and the engine underneath — via Trailer Club.
Wizard-on-retainer. Ongoing counsel across product, go-to-market, and the unseen structure that decides whether a thing works — for founders who want a partner, not a vendor.
The AI product studio where ancient wisdom meets frontier technology. Thronos (Vedic astrology you can talk to), Cortex (relationship intelligence), and more — built as living proof of the approach.
“Live your life like it's a movie.”
The craft layer — sound, cinema, and story. I put the character on screen and score the room. A decade of independent music and a cinematic personal-brand studio, both built to move people, not algorithms.
Trailer Club: throw the party, film the whole thing, and cut it into a two-minute trailer that makes a room go quiet. The trailer, the site, the funnel, the ongoing channel — your life, turned cinematic.
World-fusion bass built as ritual, not a set. Sitar, ney, oud, and duduk woven into cinematic soundscapes. 2M+ streams; performed for tens of thousands at Burning Man, Lightning in a Bottle, and beyond.
End-to-end design → shipped product. On-brand sites built in a day, identity systems, and the visual language that makes the story land.
“Remember who you are.”
The path itself. The point of all the technology is a person meeting themselves — understanding who they are, and moving with the current instead of against it. Tools and presence for the remembering.
A coach's real voice and method, preserved and scaled in AI — RAG over real sessions, cross-session memory, and a companion that stays in character. The human element, made reachable.
A sidereal Vedic birth chart you can actually talk to, grounded in your own sky and the real transits overhead. Not a printout — a conversation about the season you're in.
Meeting life — and death — without fear. Working with people to remember who they came here to be, and to build a life (and a business) that actually reflects it.
Where It All Leads
Four practices, one organism. The architect builds the foundation, the wizard sees the shape, the creative gives it a face, and the coach walks it home. It all ladders to a single collective — where ancient wisdom meets frontier technology, and the remembering is given away, proven by a life.
Let's Build Something
A system to build, a brand to bring to life, or a path to walk — if it's in service of the remembering, I want to hear about it. And honestly? I'm not AI, and I'll be your friend.
