I build practical AI systems that make ambitious work feel manageable.
WordPress tools, agents, automations, and experiments—designed in digestible checkpoints and documented as they evolve.

What the work is teaching me.
Short principles collected while building with AI in public, at work, and at home.
Break ambitious builds into human-sized checkpoints.
AI can move faster than our ability to review it. Small, testable milestones preserve context, control, and good judgment.
The useful prototype is the one grounded in real work.
The best experiments begin with a workflow I already understand—then remove friction without hiding how the system behaves.
Documentation is part of the product.
Build logs, decisions, and failed approaches make an experiment repeatable. They also make the next version much smarter.
