About Me

Born and raised in Honolulu, I studied literature and worked in patient care and psychology research before moving into software development.

Today I build software and lead engineering teams at Deloitte, primarily supporting federal healthcare agencies. I enjoy learning from people in other fields, then building tools together that make their work easier.

As of October 2026My Own Setup

My personal Mac, the tools I use, and what I build outside work.

Coding Agents
Claude Code and Codex share instructions and skills for review, debugging, design, and writing. GitHub Copilot is also installed. Hooks trim output, flag repeated calls, and add code context.
Local Models
Ollama, llama.cpp, and MLX on Apple silicon for summaries, first-pass reviews, and offline semantic code search.
Editors & Terminal
Neovim, Zed, VS Code, Xcode · Warp, kitty, tmux · ripgrep, delta, lazygit
Languages
TypeScript (pnpm, Bun), Python (uv, Jupyter), Java, .NET, Go, Rust, Swift, R
Containers & Cloud
Colima, Docker, Podman · Terraform · AWS and Azure CLIs · GitHub Actions run locally
Checks
Secret and dependency scans, pre-commit hooks, and a prose linter
Built for It
A skills installer and validator, experimental agent checkpoints, and scripts to back up and rebuild this Mac.
Side Projects
