about

I'm a systems engineer based in Bozeman, Montana. 15+ years in web infrastructure, distributed systems, and platform architecture.

Recently finished my BS, now completing my MS in Industrial & Systems Engineering at Montana State, where I'm a graduate research engineer at the BioReD Hub.

coincident & stelna

I'm a partner at Stelna Ventures, a Bozeman-based venture studio backing first-time founders across Montana and the Mountain West. Coincident Systems is Stelna's technical arm, a consulting studio I co-founded with some grad school colleagues. Software engineering, data science, organizational design, quantitative modeling.

background

10 years in cannabis tech. POS systems, compliance integrations, mobile apps for Colorado's largest independent retailer, then platform architecture for a publicly traded MSO.

I still love the industry, but I'm also exploring healthcare systems, human factors, and the engineering side of how organizations actually work.

other stuff

I run, ride bikes (slowly), and play golf (badly). I like wine and pretend to know things about it. You can find my wife, dog, and me XC skiing in the winters and running trails in the summer.

lately

Thesis topic TBD, probably something in healthcare systems or human factors.

Publishing research on speech segmentation for neuroscience workflows, contributing to trauma coordination proposals for rural Montana, and interviewing for engineering management roles. The usual chaos.
