How I think, why I write, and what it really takes to build systems that last, technically, strategically, and morally.
Why I Write
Some things exist only because someone refused to believe they couldn’t.
This is my checkpoint.
Not a newsletter. Not a platform.
A place to keep my head straight when the game gets messy.
Who I Am
I work where artificial intelligence (AI), finance, and ethics collide.
I build systems for moments when being wrong isn’t an option.
Two decades in the field. Now in a PhD because the hard questions still need answers.
Fintech is my ground. Trust is the filter.
If it’s not aligned with the model, the user, and the consequence, it doesn’t get built.
How I Think
- Clarity beats coverage.
- Constraints beat convenience.
- Discipline beats noise.
- Memory beats momentum.
Who This Is For
Me first.
If you’re here, you’re looking over my shoulder.
How This Site Works
No schedule. No fluff.
Write only when it’s worth keeping.
What I record here:
- Models tested under pressure
- Patterns that repeat in the real world
- Places where good systems fail
- Principles proven in the field
This is memory made public. Infrastructure for thinking, not marketing.
Why Now
AI moves fast. Money moves faster. Ethics gets left behind. This is to hold the line. Not to win followers. Not to please.
When systems shape lives, strategy isn’t optional and neither is the responsibility to build with care.
