Senior Software Engineer · U.S. Navy Veteran · Builder of tools that help people learn faster and work smarter with AI.

I spent six years at Bloomberg building APIs, internal platforms, and developer workflow tooling. Before that, Quality Assurance Inspector on P-3 Orion aircraft in the Navy — where I learned that the best systems are the ones people actually understand and trust.

That thread runs through everything I build now. I'm drawn to tools that make something hard feel approachable — whether that's learning a new skill, understanding a complex system, or building software with AI assistance.

Right now I'm focused on two things:

🛠️ Full-stack SaaS development — building production-grade applications with Next.js, TypeScript, and modern AI tooling

📚 Learning tools — apps that teach through doing, not passive reading. Flashcards, drills, simulations, practice engines. If it helps someone learn something faster, I want to build it.

Your specs take flight.

An open-source AI workflow manager for developers who build with AI. Store your prompts, context files, and feature specs — then run them. Stop re-explaining your project every time you open an AI tool.

The problem: Every AI conversation starts from zero. You re-explain your stack, hunt through old chat histories for prompts, paste coding standards manually. AeroFlow is the missing memory layer between you and your AI tools.

Stack: Next.js 15 · TypeScript · Prisma 7 · Neon PostgreSQL · NextAuth v5 · OpenAI · Stripe · Upstash Redis · Vercel

Status: In active development

Apps I've built that teach through doing. Each one solves a real learning problem I encountered — too much passive content, not enough practice with feedback.
