I started my career writing kernel drivers in C. These days I'm a Chief Architect at Torq.io, the AI SOC leader, prompting agents to write Go. On nights and weekends, I build terminal tools and explore what happens when AI agents become real coding partners — not just autocomplete, but collaborators you plan with, debug with, and ship with.

Every project below was built with AI agents, for AI agents, or both.
