A home base that isn’t LinkedIn

I wanted a home base that isn’t LinkedIn. Recruiters can skim Experience. Friends can skip the quota stories. I can write when something is actually worth writing.

The commercial work is still the spine of the site. I am proud of it. Descript, Stytch, Twilio, AppsFlyer — that path is real, and I am still in it. What I did not want was a personal site that pretends every hour has to map to a forecast.

So: Experience is the resume. Projects are the work I can talk about without inventing a product. Journal is for notes, not a newsletter. If you are hiring, email me. If you already know me, this is the quieter version of what I have been doing.
