Programmer since age 10, when I copied BASIC listings out of library books. I started my first software company as a student and have run my own ever since, with a stint in corporate R&D along the way. - New ventures, from idea to launch - SaaS product development - Enterprise systems and IT consulting - Rescuing stalled software projects - Putting AI to work in development and daily work I also run an online sake business. Lately I build tools that bring AI coding agents into Obsidian.
