Hi!
I work in the Minneapolis area as an IT specialist.
I do:
- Web development
- Networking
- Computer repair (PC & Mac)
I'm a full time tinkerer. I've put some time into sound engineering and photography, and I've been a community radio DJ. In my creative practice I love exploring sound and design through both music and visual mediums.
For past coding projects, see my GitHub page. I have experience building web apps and APIs, writing custom Python scripts for internal tooling, and working with cloud CI/CD tools.
If you want to collaborate on a project, send me an email!
Creative DIY projects and opportunities to help people are what especially excite me.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
recent projects
Linux home server

Repurposed aged-out enterprise Dell towers for NAS storage and home media streaming. Added Proxmox virtualization layer in April 2026.
Ribbon cable repacement
Oct 2025
At work, I disassembled a Dell Latitude laptop with a nonfunctioning screen, identified and replaced a frayed ribbon cable, and unmounted and remounted the LCD display. This is the trickiest computer repair I've completed to date and now it's out there still kicking.
Music in the Weeds
May 2025
For Watershed Group we recorded a song on the side of a cliff in Grand Marais. Big ups to WTIP North Shore Community Radio.
eReader revival
March 2025
I simply installed a new battery in a Kindle 2 I got in 2010 which sat dead for a decade. It's a great way to read without unnecessary distractions.
middle school Technopedia
March 2024
In a Digital Citizenship class I taught, students each contributed a cited HTML biography page about a technology innovator from history, and we collected them together as the Technopedia. I can't take all the credit but it's one of the funnest projects I've worked on.
gaming PC custom build
Jan 2020
Purchased and assembled case, motherboard, RAM, PSU, GPU, and drives, with a couple small upgrades over the years. The same machine is still doing good work in 2026.
