Where technology, product, and business come together.

I work where technology, product, business, and organizations collide: when architecture limits growth, technical debt becomes expensive, security becomes a business risk, or an important technology decision has consequences far beyond engineering.

About

I have spent more than twenty years working across engineering, security, architecture, product, and technology leadership.

What interests me most is what happens when a technology problem stops being just a technology problem: when architecture affects growth, security becomes business risk, or technical decisions collide with product and organisational constraints.

I still build things. Some become products, some remain experiments. This site is where I write about them and the ideas behind them.
