About Me

I am a builder. I have built businesses, robots, teams, vehicles, individuals, art, architectures, strategies, furniture, products and futures. I enjoy the creativity of building, taking a set of resources and transforming them into something which is greater than the sum of their parts.

I innovate and support innovation. Ever since I was a young child I have had curiosity for how things worked, be it mechanical mechanisms, electronics, software, chemistry, processes, people, teams or organisations. I learned that I could study them and learn the fundamental patterns and that the art of the possible is achieved very often by borrowing ideas from one sphere and applying them to another.

I fix things. Problem solving is one of my greatest joys in life. Something does not have to be broken and non-functional to be fixed. Making things perform better than they were initially designed is part of fixing. In part of my life this is known as hacking, but I prefer the term fixing as hacks tend to be short lived, a fix can be permanent.

Where I work. I spend most of my time between San Francisco, Silicon Valley and San Jose. I live and work in an area where we get to see some version of everyone's possible futures being developed and tested in real time. Prior to coming to the US I was based in the UK but worked in technology roles that took me all over the world.

Downtime. When not working I build things, either solo, in small collaborations or as part of Seems Reasonable a collective of engineers I founded with Aren Hill.

Things I have built

Trebuchet Thanksgiving 2025

Each year my family hosts a Friendsgiving for Seems Reasonable. In 2025 the pre dinner entertainment combined a box of small carving pumpkins left over from another event, some surplus construction lumber, building materials, some CAD and three evenings to create a trebuchet.

Google Security Command Center (SCC) 2020 - 2026

What was supposed to be a 12 to max 18 month project that started as the pandemic kicked off became one of the best experiences of my life.
