The Continuous Explorer

I'm a multidisciplinary technologist whose path has woven through engineering physics, computational neuroscience, data science, and enterprise blockchain. My journey wasn't linear—it evolved organically as I followed my curiosity across domains that seemed distinct but revealed surprising interconnections. At the core of my work is a commitment to finding patterns in complexity and building bridges between specialized fields.

In my current role focusing on enterprise blockchain applications, I combine technical depth with business acumen to translate complex distributed systems into tangible value. My experience spans from analyzing neural activity in prairie voles to optimizing customer retention through machine learning, reflecting my belief that diverse perspectives yield the most innovative solutions.

Whether coaching mountain biking or designing wearable technology prototypes, I bring enthusiasm and analytical rigor to every endeavor. The common thread throughout my career has been finding patterns in complexity and building bridges between specialized domains.
