About me

Turning complex problems into reliable systems.

I'm a software engineer focused on turning complex problems into reliable systems. I build backend services, developer tools, computational-design plugins, and intelligent workflows.

My work sits where application code meets the systems underneath it - APIs and data models on one side, geometry engines and automation pipelines on the other.

    Claude inside Grasshopper and Rhino 8: a plug-in that opens a chat window beside the canvas so Claude can build and edit definitions, write Python and C# script components, install and scaffold plug-ins, and hand work to fourteen specialist agents - with eighteen computational-design skills embedded.
