Automation-focused developer
Founder of The Solution Desk
I build automation-first tools and CLIs for people who are tired of doing the same thing twice.
I design pragmatic systems that reduce repetitive work, cognitive load, and operational friction.
My focus is on tools that are:
- Explicit — behavior is clear, predictable, and documented
- Reversible — safe defaults, dry runs, and escape hatches
- Maintainable — optimized for long-term use, not demos
Most of my work lives at the intersection of automation, developer tooling, and real-world constraints.
- Command-line tools and developer utilities
- Automation pipelines and workflow tooling
- Lightweight data modeling and local-first systems
- CI/CD and release automation
- Practical LLM integrations (no hype-driven abstractions)
- Clarity beats cleverness
- Automation should reduce stress, not create it
- Quality > velocity > noise
- If it can’t survive a bad day, it’s not finished
Coffee remains an undocumented but critical dependency.
