I work across product, interface design, and software to build ideas that require both systems thinking and taste.
My background cuts across full-stack development, UX research, and interaction design. These days I am focused on programmable money, frontier technology, and the question underneath most of my work: what if we added rules to money itself?
If you want the fastest way into my thinking, start with the writing below or read more about the path that got me here.

Product-fit vs Pricing-fit in a tough market
Built a product people said they would use but would not pay for. Product fit without pricing fit.
Shifting up the AI workflow gears
Skilled programmers use AI agents differently than non-technical folks. It comes down to what gear you are running in.
Human Centered Software Engineering
A paper from design school on why software engineering should take more from HCI when thinking about users.
Recent writing
View allPricing 402 services for agents
Once agents can pay over 402, the harder problem is figuring out what to charge them.
The speed of money
Why does sending money internationally still take a week, and what stablecoins change about that.
Meta-content for the short attention span
On TBPN and ESLCS, and how the content around the content sometimes works better than the main event.
APIs vs Forward Deployed Engineers
APIs as a product never made full sense to me. The upside is in understanding how customers actually use them.
Programming changed this year
Cursor and Claude changed how I write code this year. Great at the small stuff, still weak on systems thinking.
Wrap or be wrapped
NFT royalties were optional on the standard, and wrapping tokens let traders bypass every rule built into them.
