About Me
Building tools that make developers and AI agents work better together. By day I lead development at Hubstaff. By night I build AI developer tools like CEMS (persistent memory for coding assistants) and AI Standups. I've worked with Python, TypeScript, Ruby, Rails, React, Vue, and more — always picking the right tool for the job. Co-founder of EpicCoders.
