About
I usually end up wherever the gap is between what a client needs and what actually ships: data, application logic, deploys, the Kubernetes underneath, the alerting on top. At Accuris that means the MCP mesh connecting 250+ tools to every team, operations for 100+ microservices across 6 regions, a few services of my own the wider org depends on, and helping map out the work standardizing CI/CD across 1,000+ repos. Before that, first engineering hire at an AI startup, working with founders and enterprise clients. Wichita State, MIS, 2018. Open to forward deployed and platform roles.
Selected work
MCP mesh
Accuris · 2025–2026
Governed agent tooling for the whole org: 250+ tools behind one gateway, SSO, central observability. Built the first internal MCP servers and the plugin library, then the mesh every team uses.
Sauce
Open source · 2026–
An agentic operating loop for Obsidian. Notes become node-based work graphs that agents like Claude Code and Codex execute in isolated workers, with scheduling, retries, handoffs between agents, and a persistent task store. Started as a loop-based forward deployment mechanism, rebuilt around graphs. Versioned vault platform shipped via Homebrew, MIT.
GitHub ↗Ephemeral environments, three times
Cerner · Lendflow · Project Canary
Self-service test environments with data seeding and automatic cleanup, built for three different orgs: an AWX portal at Cerner, ephemeral infrastructure for dev and QA at Lendflow, a UI with branch and data-source selection at Project Canary. The problem I keep getting handed.
