Hi, I'm Dave.
Husband. Father. Engineer. Tinkerer. Rocketeer. Fiction writer. Technical leader.
I care about people, and I love to build things.
Whether I am woodworking, 3D printing, building software, or designing enterprise systems, I want to build things that help humans move forward. I am not afraid of big problems. I face hard challenges with honest laughter, practical hope, and enough patience to find the next right step.
And when that weird little spark makes someone's eyes light up? Yeah, I want to be there for that.

About / Values
What I believe.
I build with and for people. Strong systems are measured by who they help, not how shiny the diagram looks.

I build in the cloud. I lead with people.
Cloud platforms, AI-assisted delivery, observability, automation, and human-first technical leadership for messy systems.

What I'm focused on.
Building the site, exploring cloud and AI-driven roles, tinkering with rockets, and writing stories about people under pressure.

Design. Build. Test. Fly. Repeat.
CAD, 3D printing, scratch builds, certification flights, and the thrill of complex systems doing exactly what they were built to do.

I write stories because people matter.
Strange systems, dangerous attention, impossible choices, and the stubborn human need to protect each other anyway.

Let's build something that matters.
If your team needs clarity, care, humor, and forward motion in hard technical environments, I would be glad to hear from you.
