I am drawn to things don't quite make sense yet — but probably should.
I grew up on floppy-disk Linux, efnet, and Defcon. That shaped how I spend my time: you can just.. do things! I seek understand of systems from first principles, build minimal scaffolds that others can run with, and ask questions that reframe the problem.
I'm not great at repetition or polish, but tend to inspire those that do. I'm at my best bringing pattern recognition, framing, and the ability to move from "this feels important" to "here's how we might actually do it."
"You presented a strategy, but nowhere does it mention the customer."
"What durable outcome are we solving for, and why doesn't this plan reflect that?"
My goal isn't to have the answers. It's helping to ask better questions — with clarity, humility, and momentum.

Living in Amsterdam. Building agentic tooling, and helping great teams ship weirder, more useful things.
