With 25+ years Solutions Engineering expertise, currently I serve as a Principal Solutions Engineer at Cloudflare in the San Francisco Bay Area advising CISOs, CTOs, and other security leaders at Fortune 500 tech companies. But that’s the day job.
#The Shift
Something clicked in 2025. The tools got good enough. Not “impressive demo” good - actually, genuinely useful good. The kind of good where you can point an AI agent at a real problem and it solves it without hand-holding.
I started building. Not just prototyping - shipping real products:
Blogcast.io - turn any blog post into a professionally narrated podcast episode. AI voice generation that actually sounds human.
GetLocalGems.com - AI-powered local business discovery. Find the hidden gems in your neighborhood.
Moder.fun - built this one with my 10-year-old son Hudson. Because the best part of AI is that it makes everyone a builder.
#The Cloudflare Advantage
Everything I build runs on Cloudflare’s developer platform. Workers, Pages, D1, R2, KV - it’s the stack I know better than anyone. When you’ve spent years helping Fortune 500 companies deploy on the edge, you learn a thing or two about building on it yourself.
#What’s Next
I’m documenting the entire journey. The wins, the failures, the architectures, the costs. Building in public because I believe the agentic AI era is just starting, and the people who figure it out first are the ones who’ll define it.
CISSP and CCSP certified, because security isn’t optional when you’re running autonomous systems.
Follow along. This is going to be fun.
